 Recipe: Grilled Cheese
Sandwich
A grilled cheese sandwich, sometimes called toasted cheese, is one of the
simplest and yet tastiest dishes around. There's something about melty, gooey
cheese on toast that really hits the spot.
| Yield |
1 sandwich |
| Time |
5 minutes |
| Tools |
|
| Ingredients |
- 1 T butter or oil
- 2 pieces of bread
- 3-4 slices of cheese (cheddar, Swiss, American...)
|
| Directions |
Heat the butter over medium heat until melted and slightly bubbly.
Place a slice of bread in the pan, arrange cheese slices, and top
with the other piece of bread. Fry until bottom slice is golden brown, 2-3
minutes. Flip and repeat. Cut in half or quarters and serve immediately. |
| Notes |
This simple grilled cheese can be made with just about any kind of
meltable cheese, and spiced up with raw or sautéed onions (you can fry the
onions in the same pan as the sandwich), tomato, and/or avocado. If you
find that the cheese doesn't melt enough, try putting a lid on the frying
pan as the sandwich toasts. |
