The Sandwich would have to make a monument. He is so humble and simple in its essence that we don't always give you the value that it deserves, when well prepared with quality ingredients can be a mouthful of authentic luxury. It is our street food par excellence, although I like more appeal to him for dinner at home for weekend, as this beef with caramelized Onion, pear and provolone sandwich.

In my memories the sandwiches were food of excursions, trips and "conversation", which were basically when the children of the field did high tea in the middle of our games on summer evenings. The sandwich is an open field to test combinations of almost what we think and lets give leftovers from the fridge, like a forgotten steak or half onion. PEAR cheese blends wonder, but continue looking like my boyfriend rare.

Ingredients for 1 sandwich

• 1 fillet of beef, 1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika, black pepper, Provencal herbs to taste, 1/2 red onion, 1 tablespoon honey, 1/4 teaspoon of sherry or Modena vinegar, 1/2 teaspoon of Worcestershire sauce, 1 small PEAR, cheese provolone cheese, bread bar rustic, salt, extra virgin olive oil.

How to make beef with caramelized onion, pear and provolone sandwich

Cut the fillet into strips to make it perpendicular to the fibers of the meat. Remove excess fat if I had it. Mixed with a bit of olive oil, paprika, pepper and Provencal herbs to taste. Let stand.

Cut red onion into very thin julienne strips. Heat a little olive oil in a frying pan, add the onion and add a pinch of salt. Saute a few minutes over high heat, lower the heat and Cook, stirring occasionally, about 5 minutes. Add the honey, vinegar and Worcestershire sauce, and continue cooking until it is very soft and has reduced. Remove.

A little clean the Pan - or leave as is-, add a little oil and sauté the meat over high heat, until it to the fucking. Season with salt and pepper and remove. Cut the bread by opening it in half and toast in the toaster or in the same pan, taking advantage of the juices from the meat.

Assemble the sandwich by putting a base cut into not very thick slices provolone cheese, add slices of thin - with or without skin, previously washed - PEAR, onion, meat and cheese slices. It is recommended to put top of the bread after toasting to that heat melt the cheese.
