Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 slices Bread slices
- 2 slices Ham
- 2 slices Cheddar cheese
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Start by laying the slices of bread on a cutting board.
Spread 1 tablespoon of butter evenly on one side of each slice of bread.
Turn the slices over and spread the Dijon mustard on one of the unbuttered sides of the bread.
Place the two slices of cheddar cheese on top of the mustard-spread slice.
Add the ham slices over the cheese, ensuring they lay flat and don't overhang the bread.
Sprinkle the ham lightly with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
Close the sandwich with the other slice of bread, buttered side facing outwards.
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat.
Once the pan is warm, carefully place the sandwich in the skillet.
Cook the toastie for about 4 minutes on each side or until the bread is golden brown and crisp, and the cheese is melted. Press down gently with a spatula for even grilling.
Remove the toastie from the skillet and let it cool for a minute.
Slice the toastie diagonally and serve immediately.
