"This has all the makings of a Cuban sandwich, including Swiss, pickles, and sliced meats, dipped in egg batter and friend like a Monte Cristo - an irresistible combination".

2 slices rustic sour-dough-style bread
1-2 t. yellow mustard
4-5 dill pickle rounds
2 slices Black Forest* ham
2 sliced smoked turkey
3 thin slices Swiss cheese
1/2 garlic clove
Pinch of fine sea* salt
1/2 T. light* mayo.
1 large egg
2 T. whole milk
1 T. butter*
Kosher* salt
Freshly ground pepper

Spread 1 slice of bread with mustard; top wit pickles, meats, and cheese. Mince and mash garlic to a paste with a pinch of salt, then mix with mayo. Spread on remaining bread slice; assemble sandwich. Beat together egg, milk and 1/8 t. each S&P, then soak sandwich in egg mixture. Melt butter in a heavy medium skillet over mid.-low heat. Cook sammie, uncovered, until underside is well browned, about 4 mins. Flip and cook, covered, until well browned, 3-4 mins. Remove from heat and let stand, covered, 1 min.
