- 1/2 tablespoon caraway seeds
- 1 cup lager or light beer

- 1 tablespoon prepared horseradish (adjust to taste)
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice

For the Sliders:
- 12 Hawaiian rolls, sliced in half
- 12 slices Swiss cheese
- 12 slices dill pickle (or more, to taste)
- 1 pound cooked corned beef, thinly sliced or shredded
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
Instructions
1. Prepare the Beer-Braised Cabbage and Onions:
- Heat butter and olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
- Add the onion and sauté for 2-3 minutes until softened.
- Add the chopped garlic and cook for an additional 30 seconds, until fragrant.
- Stir in the sliced cabbage and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes, until slightly wilted.
- Sprinkle in the caraway seeds, salt, and pepper.
- Pour in the beer, reduce heat to low, and simmer uncovered for 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the liquid has mostly evaporated and the cabbage and onions are tender.
- Taste and add more salt and pepper if needed. Set aside.
2. Make the Horseradish Mustard Aioli:
- In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, horseradish, lemon juice, honey, and ketchup (if using).
- Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper. Refrigerate until ready to assemble.
3. Heat the Corned Beef, Cabbage, and Melt the Cheese:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil.
- Layer the corned beef on the sheet pan in 12 small piles (one for each slider).
- Add a scoop of the beer-braised cabbage and onions on top of each corned beef pile.
- Place a slice of Swiss cheese over each pile.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the corned beef is heated through.
4. Toast the Slider Buns:
- Slice the Hawaiian rolls in half.
- Brush the cut sides of each roll generously with melted butter.
- Place them cut-side up on a separate baking sheet and toast in the oven for 5-7 minutes, or until golden brown.
5. Assemble the Sliders:
- Spread a generous layer of horseradish mustard aioli on the bottom and top halves of the toasted rolls.
- Carefully transfer each pile of corned beef, cabbage, and melted cheese onto the bottom halves of the rolls.
- Add a slice of dill pickle on top, then place the top halves of the rolls to complete the sliders.
6. Serve:
Serve the sliders warm, with any remaining aioli on the side for dipping. Perfect for a St. Patrick’s Day celebration or any time you’re craving a festive, Irish-inspired bite! 🍀
