Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces Bread slices
- 2 pieces Ham slices
- 2 pieces Cheddar cheese slices
- 1 piece Swiss cheese slices
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 1 tablespoon Mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 pinch Black pepper
- 1 piece Lettuce leaves
- 1 piece Tomato slice
Instructions
Spread 1 tablespoon of butter on one side of each slice of bread.
In a small bowl, mix mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, and black pepper. Spread this mixture on the unbuttered side of one bread slice.
Layer the sandwich by first placing one slice of cheddar cheese on top of the mayonnaise mixture.
Add the ham slices on top of the cheddar cheese.
Place the Swiss cheese slice on top of the ham.
Finally, add a lettuce leaf and one thick tomato slice on top of the Swiss cheese.
Close the sandwich with the second slice of bread, buttered side facing outward.
Heat a skillet over medium heat and place the sandwich in the skillet, buttered side down.
Cook for about 2-3 minutes on one side, or until the bread is golden brown and crispy. Flip the sandwich carefully and cook the other side for another 2-3 minutes to melt the cheese completely.
Remove the sandwich from the skillet and let it cool for 1 minute before slicing in half and serving.
