Gatsby Recipe
Unique to South Africa, the Gatsby is a long bread roll stuffed with a meat or fish filling and fried chips with a chilli sauce.
Recipe Ingredients
- 2-pack SPAR Freshline French or Seeded Baguettes
- 400 g frozen SPAR Potato Chips, fried using on-pack instructions
- 450 g SPAR Tender and Tasty Fresh Rump Steak or Sizzler Rump Steak
- (OR Tender and Tasty chicken breast fillet-skinless, cut into strips OR SPAR
- Calamari Rings or Crumbed Calamari Strips OR 4 SPAR Grillers)
- Curry powder, Peri-Peri sauce or SPAR Sweet Chilli Sauce to taste
Recipe Method
- Bake the baguettes until warm and crisp using the on-pack oven instructions. Cut in half after baking to give 4 portions.
- Cut each baguette section in half lengthwise.
- Fry the chips.
- Slice the steak into strips and pan-fry the beef until cooked to your preference of ‘doneness’. Add in a good dash of curry powder, or chilli or peri peri sauce and cook briefly to get the flavour into the beef.
- Fill the split baguette sections to overflowing with fried chips and the cooked beef
- (and salad ingredients if using). Generously squeeze on SPAR Mustard Sauce or SPAR Sweet Mustard Sauce and SPAR Tomato Sauce.
- Serve immediately.
Hints & Tips
- Fresh salad ingredients such as shredded lettuce, onion and red pepper rings and sliced tomato, or slices of hard-boiled egg may be incorporated too.
- SPAR Freshline Sub Sandwich Rolls or Footlong Rolls can be used instead of the baguettes for a softer bread which is somehow easier (but less traditional), to eat with the generous filling.
- Remember the convenience of your SPAR Deli/Hot Food Counter for ready-fried chips.
- Traditionally, fried chips are associated with Gatsby’s, but consider the onpack oven bake method for a lower fat version.
- Children may prefer the steak cooked with milder sauces such as SPAR Sweet Chilli Sauce or Tangy Barbeque Sauce. SPAR Chip and Salad sauce is also a great option.
