🔪 Instructions:

  1. Preheat & prep
    Preheat oven to 200°C (400°F).
    Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Prepare the dough
    On a lightly floured surface, roll out the pizza dough into a rectangle (about 25×35 cm / 10×14 inches).
  3. Add the sauces
    Spread Dijon mustard evenly over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges.
    Drizzle or spread Thousand Island dressing lightly on top.
  4. Layer the filling
    Evenly distribute:
    Thinly sliced corned beef
    Shredded Swiss cheese
    Well-drained sauerkraut (squeeze out excess moisture to avoid sogginess)
  5. Roll it up
    Starting from the long side, roll the dough tightly into a log (like a jelly roll).
    Pinch the seams and ends to seal.
    Place seam-side down on the baking sheet.
  6. Finish the top
    Brush with beaten egg (egg wash).
    Mix melted butter with garlic powder and brush over the top for extra flavor.
    Sprinkle sesame seeds if using.
    Cut a few small slits on top to allow steam to escape.
  7. Bake
    Bake for 20–25 minutes, or until golden brown and crisp.
  8. Rest & slice
    Let cool for 5–10 minutes before slicing.
    Cut into thick pieces and serve warm.
    🍽️ Serving Ideas:
    Serve with extra Thousand Island or mustard for dipping
    Pair with pickles or a light salad for balance
    ✨ Tips for Success:
    Drain sauerkraut thoroughly—this is key for a crisp crust
    Don’t overfill or it may burst while baking
    For extra crunch, bake on a preheated tray or pizza stone
