Let's talk favourite sandwiches.

As a kid I used to eat the sandwiches my mother prepared for me: the traditional Dutch fare of white or dark bread, butter, cheese or ham. When I was ten I read a (children's) novel about a boy my age in Brooklyn who prepared a sandwich in a way I had never heard or thought about. He took a big roll, sliced it ope and filled it with peanut butter, jam, lettuce, cheese and pickles. I wondered what it would taste like, so I started experimenting and making my own, ahem, 'creations' such as lettuce/cheese/mustard sandwiches or cheese/banana/ketchup (roast in hot oven for two minutes for best effect).

Nowadays it's pastrami sandwiches with the works (a habit I picked up in New York) for me, or alternatively big 'Italian' rolls with slices of cheese, salami, chirizo and a salted green pepper on top.

On occasion (when I have make time for it) I make traditional English sandwiches like cucumber (with lemon butter) and watercress.

Sooo, what's your favourite sandwich?
