I’ve develop a theory that Lemmy cultur is very centered about sandwichs and what are the nature of sandwichs. At the begining it was all made-up from me but everyday I happily see it become more and more true!

I didn’t use a particular recipe, if you search around there are plenty of recipes, e.g.

Basically a patty melt is just a hamburger with Swiss cheese and caramelized onions on rye bread with mayo.

I used Beyond Beef, Violife slices, vegenaise, and melt butter, and I made a loaf of white bread instead of rye bread (just didn’t have time to source rye flour, etc.).

For the hamburger adding onion powder, garlic powder, black pepper, and a little vegan Worcestershire sauce works well.

If you want to spruce up the sauce a little instead of just mayo, you can add a little ketchup, dijon mustard, a little garlic powder and cayenne pepper.

Personally I would have enjoyed this more with some grilled broccoli rabe or pickled peppers, but that would have gone even further from being a patty melt.

What on earth do you need a recipe for a patty melt sandwich? Put whatever you like in bread and put vegan butter on it and put it in a pan
