Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 thin slices of mortadella
  • 2 kaiser rolls or other soft bread
  • 2 slices provolone cheese or fresh mozzarella
  • 2 tbsp pistachio pesto
  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard
  • 2 tbsp sun-dried tomatoes or roasted red peppers
  • Drizzle of olive oil
  • Optional: creamy burrata cheese, or fresh ricotta


Instructions

  1. Heat a grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat. Add the slices of mortadella and cook until they’re slightly golden brown and crisped at the edges.

  2. Split the kaiser rolls and lightly toast them on the cooking surface.

  3. Spread pistachio pesto on one half and Dijon mustard on the other.

  4. Pile on the crispy pan-fried mortadella and top with your melty cheese of choice.

  5. Add sun-dried tomatoes or red peppers, close the sandwich, and give it a quick press to melt the cheese slightly.

  6. Slice, serve, and enjoy immediately.
