Ingredients
- 2 large eggs
- 2 bread slices
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 tablespoon mayonnaise
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 lettuce leaf
- 1 tomato slice
- 1 cheddar cheese slice
Directions
Step 1
Begin by boiling the eggs. Place the eggs in a small pot and cover them with water. Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and let simmer for 7 minutes.
Step 2
While the eggs are boiling, spread the butter evenly on one side of each bread slice.
Step 3
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Place the buttered bread slices butter side down in the skillet, and toast until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes. Remove and set aside.
Step 4
Once the eggs are done, transfer them to a bowl of cold water to cool. Once cooled, peel the eggs and slice them into thin rounds.
Step 5
In a small bowl, mix the mayonnaise with the salt and black pepper.
Step 6
To assemble the sandwich, spread a layer of the seasoned mayonnaise on the untoasted side of one bread slice.
Step 7
Place the lettuce leaf on top of the mayonnaise, followed by the sliced eggs, then the tomato slice, and finally the cheddar cheese slice.
Step 8
Top with the other slice of bread, toasted side up.
Step 9
Press down gently to secure, then cut the sandwich in half and serve immediately.
