Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 slices Bread (white or wholemeal)
- 1 tablespoon Butter (softened)
- 1 teaspoon Vegemite
- as desired Optional toppings (sliced cheddar cheese or avocado)
Instructions
Lay the two slices of bread on a clean surface, such as a cutting board or plate.
Use a butter knife to evenly spread the softened butter across one side of each slice of bread. Be sure to reach the edges for a consistent flavor in every bite.
Using the same knife, spread a thin layer of Vegemite over the buttered side of one slice of bread. Start small, as Vegemite has a strong and salty flavor. You can always add more if desired.
If using optional toppings, such as sliced cheddar cheese or avocado, layer them on top of the Vegemite-covered slice of bread.
Place the second slice of bread, buttered side down, on top of the first slice to form a sandwich.
Cut the sandwich in half diagonally or into rectangles if preferred.
Serve immediately and enjoy this Australian classic!
