Norwegian Open Faced Sandwiches Recipes

Steps:

• Melt a thin layer of butter in a skillet over medium heat, then add the bread and toast on both sides until golden, 2 to 4 minutes per side. Combine the sour cream, preserved lemon and a few turns of pepper in a small bowl.
• To assemble, dollop the preserved lemon sour cream all over the bread, then top with slices of avocado. Season the avocado with salt. Nestle in the slices of salmon, radishes and cornichons. Top with black pepper and crushed red pepper, if using. Sprinkle with the chives or dill and sesame seeds, then serve with the lemon wedges. Enjoy!

Steps:

• Butter each slice of bread with half the butter.
• Spread half the mustard on top of each buttered slice of bread.
• Lay a slice of meat on top of the 2 slices of bread.
• Lay half the cheese on top of the meat.
• Serve with the Pickles and olives on the side.
• This makes 2 topless sandwiches which is what 'open faced' means.
• Can be sliced in half if bread is too large or eaten with a knife and fork.
