Ingredients
- 4 slices Thick-cut bread slices
- 100 grams Sharp cheddar cheese
- 4 slices Ham slices
- 1 medium Sliced tomato
- 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 1 pinch Salt
- 1 pinch Black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Start by spreading the butter evenly on one side of each bread slice. This buttered side will be the exterior for toasting.
Step 2
On the unbuttered side of two slices, spread 1 teaspoon of Dijon mustard each.
Step 3
Layer 2 slices of ham, a few slices of tomato, and half the grated cheddar cheese on each mustard-covered slice. Add a pinch of salt and black pepper for seasoning.
Step 4
Place the remaining bread slices on top of each sandwich, buttered side facing out.
Step 5
Heat a non-stick skillet or sandwich press over medium heat. If using a skillet, you can use a heavy pan to press down the sandwiches as they cook.
Step 6
Once the skillet or press is hot, place the sandwiches in and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the bread is golden brown and crispy and the cheese is fully melted.
Step 7
Remove the sandwiches from the heat and allow them to cool for 1-2 minutes before cutting in half.
Step 8
Serve immediately and enjoy Dad's favorite toastie!
