The chopped bagel has been blowing up our timeline – so let us introduce you to our version. It’s a play on the iconic Reuben sandwich but using Asian flavours. It’s super easy to make and hands down one of our favourite bagels to chow down on. It gets better with each bite.
* 4 sesame bagels, toasted * 440g salt beef, cooked * 200g kimchi, drained * 3 - 4 American pickles * 4 Swiss cheese slices For the Asian dressing * 4 tbsp Asian mayonnaise, we used Kewpie * 2 tbsp ketchup * 2 tsp wasabi * 1 tbsp dill, finely chopped * Salt, to season 1. To make the dressing, mix everything together and season with salt. Set aside. 2. Place the cooked salt beef on a chopping board and top with the kimchi and American pickles. 3. Roughly chop everything together, making sure it’s well mixed. 4. Scoop the mixture onto the bottom halves of the toasted bagel and generously top with the filling. 5. Drizzle with the Asian dressing before topping with slices of swiss cheese. 6. Either melt the cheese using a blow torch or place under the grill for a couple of minutes until the cheese is bubbling. 7. Top with the bagel lids and enjoy.
