Gatsby is an iconic Cape Town party sandwich made by filling a long loaf with crispy French fries, spiced meatballs, and hot sauce. Serving each layer hot helps the sandwich hold together. Its dairy-free ingredients make it suitable for people who are sensitive to lactose.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Fry the potatoes

10 min

Heat the sunflower oil and fry the potato strips until crisp and golden. Sprinkle with salt.

2

Cook the meatballs

5 min

Shape the ground beef into small meatballs and cook them in the same oil for 5 minutes.

3

Fill the loaf

5 min

Split the loaf in half and fill it with the fries, meatballs, and hot sauce.

4

Serve

2 min

Cut the sandwich in half and serve hot.

Reminder

Cut the loaf open just before filling it; if opened in advance, it will be exposed to air and lose moisture.

Acı sosu hazır mı almalıyım, yoksa evde 2 kaşık pul biber ve sirkeyle kendim mi yapmalıyım, hangisi bu sandviçe daha çok yakışır acaba diye merak ediyorum?

Patatesleri 10 dakika yerine tam olarak 14 dakika kızarttım çünkü daha kalın kesmiştim, sonuç dışı çok daha çıtır, içi yumuşacık bir kızartma oldu, gerçekten mükemmeldi.
