Gatsby

The Great Gatsby?! No! It's gatsby, the delicious South African sandwich. This tasty sub was originated in Athlone, Cape Town by Rashaad Pandy. Rashaad is the proprieter of a fast food store called Super Fisheries. He claims that one day, in 1976, he invented the sandwich after running out of fish. This food is very similar to the American hoagie.

This sandwich is made with fries (chips), bread rolls, and meat or seafood. First, heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Next, drop in a piece of bologna (or whatever meat or fish you want to use) and cook until both sides are browned. While that is browning, stir together ketchup and hot sauce (maybe even peri-peri sauce). Remove your meat or fish from the heat and put it on a toasted roll. While doing this, you need to be making some fresh french fries. When the fries are done, put them on top of your meat, along with the spicy ketchup. Lastly, add any toppings you would like, such as lettuce.

As said before, you can find this at Super Fisheries. It is still located in Athlone. They were originally a fish and chip store, but after running out of fish, Pandy had to improvise and make a sandwich out of meat for the workers pouring in. Now, they are famous for this amazing sub, gatsby!
