Ingredients
In this Inuit-inspired adaptation, we incorporate traditional Inuit ingredients to infuse the sandwich with Arctic flavors. We replace the traditional American condiments with a sea buckthorn aioli, which adds a tangy and zesty element. Additionally, we introduce smoked Arctic char, a staple in Inuit cuisine, to enhance the smoky flavor profile. The use of cloudberries, a popular Arctic berry, adds a unique and slightly tart sweetness to the sandwich. We alse have the original recipe for Roast Beef Sandwich, so you can check it out.

Treat your ingredients with care...
- Arctic char — If you can't find smoked Arctic char, you can substitute it with smoked salmon for a similar smoky flavor.
- Cloudberries — If fresh cloudberries are not available, you can use cloudberry jam or lingonberries as a substitute.
- Sea buckthorn berries — If fresh sea buckthorn berries are not accessible, you can use sea buckthorn juice or concentrate to make the aioli.
Tips & Tricks
- For an extra smoky flavor, lightly grill the roast beef before assembling the sandwich.
- Add a slice of cheese, such as cheddar or Swiss, for a creamy element.
- Experiment with different bread rolls, such as rye or sourdough, to enhance the flavors.
- If you prefer a spicier aioli, add a pinch of chili powder or a dash of hot sauce to the sea buckthorn aioli.
- Serve the sandwich with a side of pickled vegetables for a refreshing contrast.
Serving advice
Serve the Inuit-inspired roast beef sandwiches with a side of mixed greens or a simple Arctic vegetable salad. The freshness of the greens complements the flavors of the sandwich and adds a vibrant touch to the meal.
Presentation advice
To present the sandwich beautifully, cut it diagonally and secure each half with a toothpick. Arrange the sandwiches on a wooden serving board or a platter garnished with fresh cloudberries and sea buckthorn berries. This visually appealing presentation showcases the Arctic-inspired ingredients and adds an element of elegance to the dish.
