Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 slices Spam (original or low-sodium)
- 4 slices Cheddar cheese (or your preferred cheese)
- 4 slices Bread (white, wheat, or sourdough)
- 2 tablespoons Butter (softened)
- 2 teaspoons Mayonnaise (optional)
- 1 teaspoon Mustard (optional)
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper (optional, for seasoning)
Instructions
1. Preheat a skillet over medium heat.
2. Slice the Spam into 4 even slices, approximately 1/4 inch thick.
3. In the preheated skillet, fry the Spam slices for 2–3 minutes per side, or until golden and slightly crispy. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
4. Butter one side of each bread slice. The buttered side will be the outer part of the sandwich for toasting.
5. If desired, spread mayonnaise and mustard on the unbuttered sides of two slices of bread.
6. On the unbuttered side of one slice of bread, layer one slice of cheese, two slices of cooked Spam, and another slice of cheese. Top with the second slice of bread, ensuring the buttered side is facing out.
7. Repeat the process for the second sandwich.
8. Place the assembled sandwiches in the skillet and cook over medium heat for 2–3 minutes per side, pressing gently with a spatula, until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted.
9. Remove the sandwiches from the skillet and let them cool slightly before slicing in half. Season with a pinch of black pepper if desired.
10. Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious Spam N Cheese Sandwich!
