Everything that’s tantalizing about a Reuben sandwich makes an appearance here in Rach’s frittata—Russian dressing, corned beef, sauerkraut + pastrami!

Rachael says, “Passing gem romaine and toasted, buttered pumpernickel or rye bread is an easy way to add to the menu.”

  • 1 scant teaspoon caraway seed
  • 3 tablespoons butter
  • 1 medium Russet potato
  • 1 small onion, finely chopped
