Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Sliced roast beef
- 2 cups Beef gravy
- 4 slices Thick slices of bread (white or sourdough preferred)
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
1. Preheat a large skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of butter. Allow it to melt and coat the skillet evenly.
2. Toast the slices of bread in the skillet until golden brown on both sides, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove the toasted bread and set aside.
3. In the same skillet, pour in the beef gravy and heat it gently over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally. Season the gravy with salt and black pepper if needed.
4. Add the sliced roast beef to the warm gravy. Let it heat through for 5-7 minutes, ensuring the beef is fully coated and tender.
5. Lay each slice of toasted bread on a plate. Top each slice with a generous portion of the roast beef and gravy mixture.
6. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley, if desired, for a fresh pop of color and flavor.
7. Serve the open face sandwiches immediately while warm. Enjoy!
