Corned Beef Bowl (Print Version)

# Ingredients:

→ Reuben Bowl Mix

01 - 12 ounces of coleslaw mix (two 10-ounce packs)
02 - 3 tablespoons oil, split up
03 - 4 ounces of Swiss cheese, sliced
04 - 1 cup of sauerkraut, squeezed dry
05 - 3/4 pound deli corned beef, thickly sliced
06 - 1 teaspoon caraway seeds
07 - 2 garlic cloves, chopped up finely
08 - 1 small sweet onion, diced into small pieces
09 - A pinch of black pepper (about 1/4 teaspoon)
10 - 1/2 teaspoon of salt
11 - Green onion slices (only the green tops) for garnish

→ Homemade Thousand Island

12 - 1/3 cup mayo
13 - 1 tablespoon of dill relish
14 - 1 tablespoon ketchup
15 - 2 tablespoons sour cream
16 - 1 garlic clove, minced finely
17 - 1 sweet onion, minced, around a tablespoon
18 - 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
19 - Some paprika, about 1/4 teaspoon
20 - Salt (adjust to your preference)

# Instructions:

01 - Slice up the corned beef into cubes that are about half an inch thick.
02 - Pour one tablespoon of oil into a big skillet and heat it over medium-high. Toss in the beef and stir around for about 4 or 5 minutes. Put a paper towel on a plate, then move the browned beef onto it to soak up the oil.
03 - Throw another tablespoon of oil into the skillet. Add the chopped onion and let it cook until it’s soft and see-through, about 2 or 3 minutes. Sprinkle in the garlic and caraway seeds, stirring for another minute or so.
04 - Pour in the last tablespoon of oil, followed by the coleslaw mix. Let it cook while stirring every now and then for about 6 to 8 minutes, until it’s tender but still has a little crunch.
05 - Toss the sauerkraut, black pepper, salt, and browned beef back into the skillet with the coleslaw. Lay the Swiss slices on top, turn the heat to low, and wait 3 to 4 minutes for the cheese to melt.
06 - Grab a medium-sized bowl and whisk together the mayo, sour cream, ketchup, relish, onion, garlic, Worcestershire sauce, and paprika. Add some salt if needed.
07 - Scoop the warm mix into bowls and drizzle the Thousand Island sauce on top. Sprinkle on those green onion slices for a nice finishing touch.

# Notes:

01 - Caraway seeds give this dish the classic rye bread taste.
02 - For extra flair, shred some homemade corned beef instead of store-bought deli meat.
03 - Keep leftovers fresh by storing the bowl mixture and sauce in their own airtight containers.
