1
Slice pastrami as thinly as possible and then cut slices lengthwise and crosswise so that they are thin/flat, bite-sized pieces (1 1/2 inches long by 1/2 inch wide).
-
2
Melt margarine in saucepan or frying pan and fry the slices of turkey pastrami until browned on edges. (Medium-high heat worked well for me, ant took just over 10 minutes).
-
3
Sprinkle flour over the turkey pastrami and stir until flour is browned. (This took less than a minute for me.).
-
4
Stirring constantly, add soy milk and, if using, the cream cheese substitute. (I used this because I wasn't sure how well soy milk would thicken). Bring to a boil.
-
5
After boiling, stir again and cook until thickening begins. Remove pan from heat and let stand for a minute or so. This thickened to a perfect consistency for me.
-
6
Meanwhile, toast the bread, 2 to 3 slices is a serving size for me.
-
7
Serve hot over toast. If there's any leftover sauce on your plate, sop it up with more toast, it tastes so good!
