Ham and Cheese Toastie
This ham and cheese toastie has an extra dimension of flavour, which comes from sun-dried tomato pesto and a dark seeded bread.
Ingredients
- 2 slices bread thickly sliced
- 2 tbsp sun-dried tomato pesto or any other pesto
- 2 slices mild cheddar
- 1 slice good quality ham thickly slices or a couple of thinly sliced ones
- 30g/1/4 cup grated mozzarella
- 1 tbsp butter or olive oil
Instructions
- Spread 1 tbsp of sun-dried tomato pesto on each slice of bread and top each of them with a slice of cheddar cheese. Then place a slice of ham on of them and grated mozzarella on another.
- Carefully combine the slices of bread to form a sandwich without spilling the grated mozzarella and toast on a preheated frying pan in 1 tbsp of melted butter. Start on low heat to allow time for the cheese to fully melt. Once you flip the sandwich over, you can briefly cover the pan with a lid to create more heat inside, which will speed up the cheese melting process.
