A timeless and enduring all-time New York classic comes closer to home with the new Pastrami Fried Rice from Deli by Chele. And this one's a real keeper...
The brined and smoked savory slabs of fork-tender brisket is a natural with bread, specifically the buttered toasted sourdough with its delicate crispness at Deli by Chele. Widely regarded as an iconic staple from the Big Apple, it just doesn't get more New York than a deli style pastrami sandwich. Fried rice? It may seem a stretch, but wait until that heaping spoonful hits your palate.

New York style pastrami, it seems, made a new friend.
At Deli by Chele in Robinsons Magnolia, the prized specialty NY Style Beef Brisket Pastrami is brought out to the chopping board...
That smoky bark on the outside is concentrated with intense flavors, and a slice reveals the pinkish smoke rings building even more layers of flavors in the curing process. It's a taste of New York, romanticized in culture and recognized around the world. Chef Chele Gonzalez takes it and runs with it with the new Pastrami Fried Rice, now available at Deli by Chele in Robinsons Magnolia, The Podium and Power Plant Mall.

The NY Style Pastrami becomes the base for an imaginative and inventive new offering at Deli by Chele. Brined, smoked and cured, the tedious process behind each slab of fork-tender brisket is what gives that distinct New York touch to the sandwiches at Deli by Chele. But leave it to Chef Chele to add his own spin...
...with the new Pastrami Fried Rice. The sunny side-up is prepared in a special way, cooked to a particular shape to fit nicely on the side of the bowl. It's the little details like this that reveals a glimpse on the creative process behind each new product offering at Deli by Chele.
The bowl is then carefully assembled with a layer of moist fried rice enriched with the savory drippings from the housemade NY Style Pastrami giving it a distinct color and flavor. Then, the sunny side-up is added before the tender slabs of pastrami complete the bowl. A sprinkling of fresh spring onions completes the finishing touches for the new Pastrami Fried Rice.
Gently tap the yolk and let it ooze down the soft fried rice and you're ready for that big spoonful of pastrami goodness. A slice of the pastrami, rice and egg becomes an idea that just seems so right. From the beefy, mildly briny and smoky hints of the fork-tender pastrami to the soft fried rice delivering a burst of savory flavors smoothened by the richness of the sunny side-up, the Pastrami Fried Rice hits home for a unique yet comforting take on a New York classic.
The richness of the beef is tempered by the subtle briny hints while the fried rice infused with pastrami drippings releases savory notes with each bite. The sunny side-up completes the flavors of the new dish. And it really doesn't get much better than that.
