Add the meat, cover with a lid and reduce the heat to low. Simmer for 45 minutes. Turn the meat over and simmer for a further 45 minutes. Allow the meat to cool in the cooking liquid for at least 2 hours.<\/p>\n<h4>Russian Dressing<\/h4>\n<p>Combine everything in a food processor and blend until fine.<br \/>\nPreheat the oven to 180 \u00baC.<\/p>\n<h4>Potato Wedges<\/h4>\n<p>Spread the <strong>Findus Rosemary Potato Wedges<\/strong> onto a baking tray (line with foil for ease of cleaning). Bake until golden brown and cooked through.<\/p>\n<h4>To Serve<\/h4>\n<p>Spread each slice of bread with butter and turn each slice over. Add a slice of cheese to 4 of the bread slices (the unbuttered side).<\/p>\n<p>Thinly slice the cooled meat. Add 4 slices of meat on top of each slice of cheese. Add another slice of cheese, a dollop of sauerkraut and a tablespoonful of the Russian dressing to each sandwich. Close each sandwich with the remaining slices of bread, butter side facing up.<\/p>\n<p>Heat a large non-stick pan over medium heat and carefully fry each sandwich for 2-3 minutes per side until the bread is crisp and golden and the cheese has melted. Scatter with chopped parsley, if preferred. Serve each sandwich with a side of Findus wedges and more Russian sauce on the side for dipping.<\/p>\n<p>TIP: For a quick cheat\u2019s version of the homemade corned beef, simply replace it with thinly sliced Pastrami that can be found at the deli counter of your preferred supermarket.<\/p>\n<p><em>For more delicious recipe inspiration\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/FinSub17\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>subscribe to the Findus newsletter<\/strong><\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.findus.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">findus.com<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.findus.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-41833 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/test10.co.za\/C\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/image001.gif\" alt=\"reuben sandwich Findus June 2017 Carrots Leaderboard\" width=\"1000\" height=\"100\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A classic New York sandwich made at home.
