Cheesesteak Sandwich
I had always thought that the inhabitants of the historic cradle of the Independence of the United States, the rigorous and elegant city founded by the Quaker William Penn on the shore of the Delaware, were refined lovers of refined and elegant cuisine, while in reality they eat like hungry dragons. This is demonstrated by the "Philly Cheesesteak Sandwich".
Roast 1 pepper in the oven, remove the skin and seeds and cut into strips. Sauté 1 onion cut into thick slices in a pan with a little oil. Add the pepper and let it flavor. Drain and set aside. In the same pan, cook 7-8 sliced button mushrooms. They are briefly browned on a lightly oiled griddle (a grill or a griddle), 300 gr of slices of beef, turning them once. Keeping them on the griddle, they are divided into two heaps, on top of each one place 80 gr of slices of provolone cheese and melted. Transfer the sautéed, salted and peppered vegetables to 1 baguette cut in half, opened in half and heated on the griddle, cover with meat and cheese and complete with spicy ketchup sauce and mayonnaise.
If you have a stopover in Philadelphia and you have some time waiting for your connecting flight to the next one, at the airport I recommend you try this sandwich, which is very famous. If, on the other hand, you are planning to really visit the city and not just take a peek at it from above, to admire the Liberty Bell, visit Congress Hall or Independence Hall and look closely at the Declaration of Independence, you can also eat it in the Museum's cafeteria.
If you have never considered visiting Pennsylvania, never mind, but think about it because here, in Lancaster County, which is only 120 km from Philadelphia, there is the most populous Amish colony in America. In the meantime, however, for a Sunday lunch in the garden or on the terrace, rather hungry and willing to grease yourself a little, now you know how to prepare a perfect Philly Cheesesteak! And don't forget the fries...
