Four TikTok Sandwich Trends to Try

For British Sandwich Week in May, try these trending TikTok combos to make sarnies the star of your menu
ITALIAN GRINDER SANDWICH

Italian Grinder

Deli Meats
Layer up a mix of 2-3 sliced meats. Match this sandwich’s Italian-American roots and choose salami, pastrami, prosciutto or turkey. 

Salad
Coat shredded iceberg lettuce with a dressing of mayo, garlic paste, Italian seasoning, parmesan, chopped pepperoncini and a splash of red wine vinegar.

Cheese
Top with a slice of tasty cheese that will melt perfectly when grilled – think smooth mozzarella, gouda and provolone or peppery Monterey.

Chopped Caprese

Mozzarella
Go for a good-quality mozzarella and tear into small chunks or slice and grill on the bread then add your cold chopped fillings.

Tomato
Finely dice a beef tomato or chop up ripe cherry varieties and season with plenty of salt to bring out the sweetness.

Basil
It’s not a Caprese without fresh basil leaves for that subtle pepperiness. Tear instead of chopping to keep leaves vivid green. 

CHOPPED CAPRESE SANDWICH
BREAKFAST BAP

Breakfast Bap

Eggs
Good eggs make a breakfast bap. Try fried with runny yolks, scramble with a knob of butter or opt for chopped soft-boiled.

Bacon
Crisp up streaky bacon under the grill or fry in a pan to add saltiness and crunch. Choose smoked for extra flavour.

Cheese
For a proper British combo, pick a mature cheddar that will melt easily. Try American slices if you want a stringier cheese pull.

Gluten-Free Melt

Bread
Source a top-notch gluten-free bread that will hold fillings without crumbling, such as a sourdough or fluffy pitta.

Tuna
Use a jar of tuna in oil for maximum flavour. Drain and mix with mayonnaise, seasoning and a dash of lemon juice.

Halloumi
Slice up salty halloumi and fry gently until it
starts to brown. Try breadcrumbing small chunks for added crunch.
