Who wouldn't love
a good cheese sandwich, and grilled cheese sandwiches are amongst the
finest in this category. I decided to make some for breakfast, and
like so often I took inspiration from Felicity Cloake's column in The
Guardian. Not too long ago she published the article How to make the perfect grilled cheese sandwich and
there are very good tips in there. Have a read through, if you are a
grilled cheese enthusiast.
I really enjoyed
these sandwiches very much. Below is my variation of grilled cheese
sandwiches. I got the nice bread in a fairly new bakery/café in
Southampton, Boulangerie Victor Hugo and used my favourite cheese of
all time, the Finnish Oltermanni.
Ingredients to make 4 sandwiches
8 slices of bread
100 g mature
Cheddar grated
16 Oltermanni
slices (or any other more easily melting cheese)
1 tsp butter
1 garlic clove
½ tsp smoked
paprika
Method
Heat a frying pan
to medium heat.
Slice the bread.
Grate the Cheddar
and slice the other cheese.
Cut the garlic
into very thin slices.
Place the garlic,
Cheddar, paprika and Oltermanni on one slice of bread and cover with
another one.
Let the butter
melt in the pan and put the breads there.
Press them down a
bit and cook on both sides until the cheese has melted and the bread
is golden brown.
Enjoy as breakfast
or snack and above all enjoy your weekend! Sun is shining here, which means a bit brighter food photos for a change. And did you notice that I indeed got the seasonal Moomin mug for Christmas!

ReplyDeleteYou did give me inspiration to experiment. :)
And your mug is just the cutest!
Thank you once again for your lovely comment Adi! You should experiment indeed, only a few things are better than grilled cheese sandwiches! Haha! Thanks for the mug compliment as well, I always like a good Moomin mug. :)
