- Preparation: 10 min
- Cooking: 15 min
- Makes: 1 serving (217 g)
- Difficulty: Medium
- Contains: dairy, egg, gluten, mustard, pork
Ingredients
- 75 g Bread, egg (challah)
- 60 g Pork shoulder, raw
- 35 g Ham, cooked
- 20 g Swiss cheese
- 15 g Pickles, dill
- 6 g Mustard

Method
- If the pork shoulder isn't already roasted, season it and roast at 160 °C (320 °F) until fully cooked through and fork-tender, then slice thinly (leftover roast pork works well here).
- Split the soft egg bread roll and spread mustard on both cut sides.
- Layer the ham, roast pork, sliced pickles and Swiss cheese inside.
