Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 slices Sliced sandwich bread
- 3 slices Cooked ham
- 2 slices Swiss cheese
- 1 tablespoon Unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon Mayonnaise
- 1 pinch Salt
- 1 pinch Black pepper
Instructions
Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat.
In a small bowl, mix the Dijon mustard and mayonnaise together until well combined.
Spread the mustard-mayo mixture evenly over one side of both slices of bread.
Layer 3 slices of ham on one of the bread slices, over the mustard-mayo spread.
Place 2 slices of Swiss cheese on top of the ham, ensuring the cheese is evenly distributed.
Season lightly with a pinch of salt and black pepper.
Close the sandwich with the second slice of bread, mustard-mayo side facing inward to seal the filling.
Spread softened butter on the outer sides of the sandwich slices—this will help achieve a golden, crispy crust.
Place the sandwich in the preheated skillet. Press it gently with a spatula and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the bottom is golden brown and crispy.
Flip the sandwich carefully and cook for another 2-3 minutes, pressing gently with the spatula until the other side is toasted and the cheese is fully melted.
Remove the sandwich from the skillet and let it rest for a minute before slicing in half.
Serve the toasted Swiss ham sandwich immediately and enjoy!
