- Well, this International Sandwich Sunday promises to be a learning experience for yours truly. That’s because today we’re headed to Australia for the Spaghetti Jaffle. Or at least, my attempt at it. Spaghetti and cheese sealed in buttered bread seems like an easy task. Yeah, about that. Lol

Actually, you did a pretty good job! In Australia, you can buy electric sandwich toasters/jaffle-makers that are solely for this purpose. Big ones make up to four sandwiches at a time. Tinned spaghetti is fine, but baked beans is the classic - plussed up with some tasty cheese (you can buy that here too - it’s literally called ‘Tasty Cheese’ on the packet) and worcestershire sauce. Where I grew up (in Tasmania), we just called these ‘toasted sandwiches’. I didn’t know they were called ‘jaffles’ until I moved to the Mainland (i.e. continental Australia - Tasmania is the little island to the south). A proper jaffle maker seals the edges of the sandwich without squishing the contents, so the inside stays runny and retains the temperature of molten lava for about 6 hours (ok, so the last bit was an exaggeration, but not a huge one).😂 You could probably buy an authentic 1980s ‘Breville Sandwich Toaster’ online for a song. You can put all sorts in them - I used to like leftover bolognese sauce or ‘savoury mince’ with cheese! (‘Mince’ is Australian for ‘ground meat’.) 👍🤩
A bean panini sounds amazing. I'm going to have to try that.
You can get electric sandwich toasters in the U.S., too. They're just not commonly found in most people's kitchens. My roommate had one in the 90's.
A beannini, if you will. Sounds a treat with pepper jack cheese!
@@XianHu George Foreman grill is my goto panini machine.
Calling it a jaffle is recent. I'm 38 and live in SA, I never heard the word jaffle until a few years ago. I think its the big influx of British people moving here. There's a lot British biscuits and sweets in the supermarkets now. None of them are any good lol.
I'm not mad though, I like that the British name everything they cook something silly. Even the left overs get a name "Bubble and Squeak". The best we Aussies do is shorten it.
Leftover Spaghetti in garlic bread
@@Nerfunkal oh yea. Been making spaghetti sammiches since I was about 8 years old with the garlic bread
Neighbors whispering over the fence: "Barry doesn't even have a jaffle iron!"
I'm a New Zealander. I was raised on these. We called them toasties.
Never heard the word Jaffle. Must be an Aussie thing.
My sister and I mostly had to feed ourselves when we were kids so over time, we learned to not overfill them.
I also remember salt and pepper on hot buttered toast when the cupboards were a bit empty.
Our toastie maker was the same as the one in the video but square and black from years of use. My Grandad gave it to us.
@@chrisweir3166 Excellent point, Chris. You’re clearly a person who knows the art of sandwich toasting! Do not over-fill is an irrefutable rule for life, up there with “do not feed the Mugwai after midnight” and “never start a land-war in Asia”. There’s nothing worse than hearing that horrible “ hsssssssss” as you watch the liquid contents of your sandwich - and all the tasty cheese - dribble out the side of the machine, burn and set like concrete on the edge of the appliance and the bench top. 😩
Morning Barry! As an Aussie who has had many spaghetti jaffles the best stuff to use is Watties extra cheesy.
Also, I think that Heinz brand would be the most commonly used here so you shouldn't feel self conscious about any sort of illegitimacy. Probably the most legit attempt at weird Aussie food I've seen 😊
I've never seen a single other human with a Toast-Tite before. I love making sandwiches in that thing. The crisp edges and perfect toasted center are so good.
One week you do one most authentic Italian sandwich, the next week you put (canned???) spaghetti in a toast. Perfectly balanced, as all things should be
I absolutely love these things to this day. A common snack!
Also it's just cheddar cheese
You can have it as an open sandwich, under the grill. It has to always be tin spaghetti
What does Jaffle mean?
jaffle irons is how you make the sandwich - it's their name for the sandwich press. much like kleenex and band-aid in some regions
@@zachseeman5235It's like how we call a toastie maker a Breville no matter what brand 😂
But back in my sharehousing days we had a Ronson. So we'd be living off cheese Ronsons until pay day.
That is what we call a jaffle maker in Aus. You did ok. Personally I go for baked beans, only Heinz, and some nice matured cheddar cheese. But yeah that brings back memories of my grandma making jaffles for me for lunch in winter.
i used to make these with leftover spaghetti bolognese, with a little parmesan/pecorino crisped up on the outside of the bread, call it a "sloppy giuseppe"
That was begging for some chilli crisp as the plusup
Garlic powder, for sure!
the modern versions of these are best made with a sandwich toaster (i.e. NOT a panini press), the kind that presses, shapes and toasts the bread into triangles.
Barry's version is great for camping but not so much at home.
Hi Barry, you have to remember that this is camping food. The spills out of the jaffle iron go into the fire which you cook it on. And the jaffle iron is traditionally black with soot from continual use. The cheese should be just block cheddar. Egg and cheese is also great as a jaffle, as in baked beans (English style, not US).
America has spaghetti sandwiches, too. They are also not great. But when life gets you down or it's just too much too soon... A carb sandwich is ultimately not eating it room temp from the tin. It's that veneer of being real food that is 90% of the battle
Midwest USA here. We call ‘em pie irons or ‘ponies’. I heard of using spagatti with garlic buttered bread but never tried it. Rubins are great. (Corned beef, Swiss cheese, kraut and Russian dressing and rye bread)or burritos. (Canned or left over chili, cheddar cheese, diced onion, peppers and flour tortillas) Pizza (sauce, pepperoni or canned chicken is good with mushroom, green peppers and mozzarella) fruit pies with white bread and canned pie filling for dessert is always a hit with the kiddos. Combo’s are endless and everything tastes better around a camp fire.
Damn spell check……….thats pie irons or POGIES.
UK here! Similar(ish) alternative here would be baked beans (as in, British ones, not US ones - Heinz or similar) with cheddar and some brown sauce, and bung that in a sandwich toaster that seals it all in. Then, natch, burn your tongue the second you take a bite. Nice comfort food though.
What you used on the stove (toast tite ?) is what we call a Jaffle iron in Australia. Don’t see people use them much anymore.
A long time ago we used to make leftover spaghetti and red gravy sandwiches. Hollow out the end of a french bread loaf and stuff it full of heated spaghetti and meat sauce then enjoy.
I didn't see you slide the latch down to be next to the sandwich - that is required to clamp more tightly. We had a set of these when I was growing up.
I was waiting for a waffle iron 😂
Australian here. I've never liked tinned spaghetti jaffles. Baked beans is another very ordinary "classic" here too. Vegemite and cheese however...
Just remember this was a kids meal. I never eat this s an adult. I'd moved onto baked bean jaffles by then!
As a kid i ate spaghetti sandwiches all the time-but never in grilled form.Makes me want to revisit this...
Barry, you put the first slice of bread into the jaffle iron butter side up. Both buttered sides need to face out to aid in browning and to make sure it doesn’t stick.
1:08 that laugh 🤣🤣🤣
Suggestion for an International Sunday, a breakfast roll. Baguette, Real Butter, Breakfast Sausages, Bacon, Hash Brown, Black and White Pudding and HP Sauce! An Irish staple!
Aww come on Barry. You didn't plus it up with Vegemite? Missed a Men At Work opportunity there. Thanks man. 😅😅👍👍
"off the rails" you made us smile....thanks for sharing......Joie de Vivre
Hey Barry I've always been a fan of the hienz bake bean jaffle with cheese and hp or worstershire sauce
Peperoni slices in it probably would be great, like a calzone or something.
Someone get this man a 5 dollar target jaffle iron. This sandwich deserves a redux.
That looks like an extreme "grilled cheese treatment". I'd try it.
(2:17) Unless someone comes up with the right way to make this sandwich. That is… if there is one tho 🤣
Clearly your first time. Dont cut the crusts untill it’s sealed.
Go slow & pre warm the jaffle iron.
Don’t over fill, definitely add cheese.
You should get a crust tasty pocket of molten lava
Definitely how the Australians would react to discovering and wanting to make their own version of “Italian-American” food.
Speaking of noodles in bread, how about yakisoba-pan in some forthcoming International Sandwich Sunday? Or have you done that one already?
I always eat my spaghetti on butterd white bread. Im a simple man lol
I have a thing called "Hamburger Heaven" - that would have made this perfectly! Not as much "escaping" or even a panini press. Most canned spaghetti is a bit "sweeter" so I could see where it would not be as palatable to you. It's like making it with spaghetti-o's! hehhehhe
I respect your taste & honesty
That sandwich is a no go
I was like... what's a jaffle. A toastie? Okay, I can get behind a spaghetti toastie. Just make chicken parm one day, and then use the leftover spaghetti and cheese to make this. Add in some fresh basil and crushed red chilis and I'd call it a meal.
hehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehe
Jaffle-tech YAAAAHHZ!!!
So I'm guessing a jaffle is kind of like a breville sandwich toaster
I love Australia and I have very much enjoyed every trip I’ve taken there…but it is not known for its cuisine.
Australia part two sandwich with the lot
You should try a Belfast Bap some Sunday! :)
Pasta sandwich, to quote my father: “if I eat that I’ll be in a coma.” Also interesting that it tasted sweet, is it the brand of spaghetti or does canned spaghetti in general run on the sweet side?
All canned pasta is like that. I ate a lot of it growing up because my mother worked and it was a nice, quick, inexpensive hot meal. I still get it once in a while for that reason. It's easy enough to remedy with some seasoning.
In America it's not called a jaffle maker it's called a sandwich maker. I got one from Walmart a couple of weeks ago. Great for leftovers and broke college students.
a spaghetti and meat sauce this way would be pretty neat. granted I also think spaghettios might also be so I have terrible taste
Interesting. I would probably try once.
Schagyhetti waffle?!?!
Youll have to redeem Australia and make Tiger Toast instead! Butter and Vegemite spread over toasted bread, lines of thin cheese slices over that (so you get a tiger stripe pattern), then back under the griller to melt the cheese a bit!
He's already done Vegemite plussed up with cheese.
I’ve had that and never been down under.
This looks like one of the dreadful concoctions me an my dorm mates "created" back in the day when we were drunk, broke, and everyone just brought whatever ingredients they had sitting in their cabinets. 😅
Not sure about the plus-up here. The only plus-up for that is Houses of Parliament (HP) sauce.
If I have more left over sauce than pasta, then I'd try this with mozzarella and some pepperoni {usually have some in the freezer} or other pizza like veggies. I do not have the device, but I bet I can find one when I'm thrifting
I like sweet spaghetti sauce, but not that watery canned sauce. A good thick sauce with flavor and sweetness is perfect on buttered bread.
😮i just never understood the whole pasta on bread thing. if u got one, u dont need the other. carb on carb,w/no meat?
Try the yakisoba pan from Japan!
shoutout to the smoke rising up to the right
Haha! Right? Didn't see that until I was editing
You forgot to account for the Coriolis effect, cooked it upside down
😂
I would eat that. Yum.
That’s exactly how I say Australia
Add another human with a Toast-tite!! This sandwich must have been carried by Irish immigrants when Ireland was noted to have "canned spaghetti on toast" on restaurant menus.
If you're eating cheap crap in Australia, the two genres are "tin of baked beans" and "tin of spaghetti", the former of which is actually alright and the latter utterly wretched. As for the cheese, it'll either be a thin slice of cheap supermarket cheddar (which is like 90% of all cheese here) or a Kraft single (or American cheese or whatever you call it). This probably isn't too far off, tinned spaghetti is indeed gross (why it's so ubiquitous is a mystery, somebody out there must like it) and baked beans would be the better option. Jaffle irons seal the outside with extreme prejudice by pressing the crusts firmly together so you wouldn't get that leaking problem.
Baked beans and Tabasco. No need for cheese.
the only way to experience a good spaghetti sandwich is use spaghetti with the meat sauce :)
It doesn't sound bad, but also this might be the least impressive international sandwich yet. Do better, Australia! (Your country seems awesome, I would love to visit someday)
Yeah this is famous here. I've never had one though
Doesn't taste great. Absolute mess. More work than it is worth. 5 out of 10. Sounds like you did it perfectly! We aren't proud of this one but it has its place.
Try another version? I think not. ❤
I grew up eating leftover spaghetti and meat sauce on big slices of sourdough bread. American cheese was how we did it. Toasted up in the oven. It was beyond delicious but very much a "once-and-a-blue-moon" treat for sure. The concept of canned spaghetti is unfamiliar to me (I mean, I've seen the blue cans of Heinz on the shelf) as it seems easy enough to make the stuff from dry. But then again, I did only eat ravioli from a can until I was way too old, so I can't front being fancy or nuthin.
I wonder how this would taste if it were made from Jollibees’ spaghetti🤔
Comfort food! No room to plus-up with vegemite?
you're supposed to use vegemite too
Get a jaffle iron. So much easier.
Almost any food can be put into grilled bread with cheese & it's going to be pretty great.. canned spaghetti really isn't one of them
Genuinely hilarious to complain about elevated jaffle recipes and then immediately chuck on sicilian sheeps milk cheese.
When I was a kid it was more common, and even cheaper, to do cheese, onion, and pepper. If you don’t have a jaffle maker doesn’t seem worth doing though.
Canned spaghetti is revolting on every level
I don't like sweet spaghetti either.
Deeply unserious country
👍😂 🇦🇺
I had so many of these as a kid. As an adult, they’re not good
As no one says it...
😂😂
this is basically taking 2 pieces of bread and putting spahetti in between with cheese ..pretty basic
Aussies have nothing on South African jaffles . Milktart jaffles or stay home.😊
You can’t make can spaghetti taste good.
this is something that we make over in England too, which isn't surprising to me.
Your method was clearly worse tho! your tools for the job were unfortunatly incorrect. A good old grilled cheese sandwich press is the go to here.
I am personally more a fan of baked bean and cheese toastie over the spag.
Butter goes on the outside.
Whoever invented this needed to have been plastered, right?
Ick!!! Why would anyone eat that???
No, no, nope. 🤢
