Pressed Cubano Sandwich

I normally make this after Christmas or any time I make a ham, but my friend Lara wanted to compare out recipes & it sounded good, so I made it to share with all of you too.  This sandwich is a hit with everyone in our family. I don’t know where I got this recipe and I don’t have exact measurements, but you will get the idea, just go with me.  I also have no idea how “authentic” this is I just know it is good.

 

1 TSP olive oil
2 minced garlic cloves
1 package Hawaiian rolls (I use the small one’s, I think there are 8 per package & I don’t separate them into tiny sandwiches before I cook them.)
Yellow mustard
Swiss cheese
Bacon – cooked
Dill pickle slices
Chopped cilantro
Ham

·          Combine oil and garlic in small dish (save for later)
·          Spread each side of bread with mustard
·          Layer bottom half of the bread with cheese, cilantro, pickles, & bacon
·          Layer top half with cheese & ham
·          Put sandwich together
·          Brush garlic oil evenly on outside of rolls. 
·          Cook on stovetop in a large skillet, place something heavy on top of sandwiches and squish
·          Cook about 3 minutes on each side or until slightly brown and cheese is melting

And the finished product is below.  After the sandwich is cooked I cut them into the small squares.  Served with garlic-clilantro potatoes.

    Proud Army wife and mother to 4 wonderful children.  I love to cook, travel, work out and scrapbook life’s adventures when I find the time.  We just got orders & are heading back to the states in March 2010.  I'm bummed that our time has been cut short, but proud of Hubby for the reason why.
