Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil.
Finely chop the broccoli florets and dice the onion. Mince the garlic.
SautΓ© the onion in the skillet for 2-3 minutes until soft and translucent. Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute.
Add the chopped broccoli to the skillet and stir well. Cook for 5-6 minutes until the broccoli becomes tender but still vibrant in color.
Sprinkle the curry powder, salt, and black pepper over the veggie mixture. Stir well to coat and remove from heat.
Transfer the seasoned broccoli mixture to a mixing bowl. Add the cream cheese and shredded cheddar cheese to the mixture. Stir until the cheese is melted and everything is well combined.
Butter one side of each bread slice. Place two slices butter-side-down on a clean surface.
Spread the curried broccoli mixture evenly over the two slices, then top each with the remaining slices of bread, butter-side-up.
Heat a clean skillet over medium heat. Place the sandwiches in the skillet and toast for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown and crispy, and the cheese is melted.
Remove from the skillet and let cool for 1 minute. Slice the toasties in half and serve warm.
