- 4 kaiser or hard rolls, trimmed and halved
- Vegetable oil
- 10 ounces smoked mozzarella, cut into 16 thin slices

Method
- In a bowl, combine the onion, jalapeno, bell pepper, cilantro, olive oil, lemon juice and lemon zest and season with salt and pepper.
- Spread 2 tablespoons of the fresh onion relish on each kaiser roll half.
- Set a large skillet over moderate heat and coat with a thin layer of vegetable oil.
- Place 2 roll halves in the skillet, relish side up, and top each with 2 mozzarella slices, 4 pork slices and 2 more mozzarella slices.
- Reduce the heat to low and cover each sandwich with another roll half, relish side down.
- Weight down the sandwiches with a medium skillet and cook until the bottoms are toasted and the bottom layer of cheese has melted, about 4 minutes.
