Ingredients
- 200 grams Brie cheese
- 60 grams Sun-dried tomatoes (in oil, drained)
- 1 large Fresh tomato
- 6 leaves Fresh basil leaves
- 2 tablespoons Extra virgin olive oil
- 4 slices Sourdough bread
- 2 tablespoons Butter (softened)
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper (freshly ground)
Directions
Step 1
Slice the Brie cheese into thin pieces (approximately 0.5 cm thick) and set aside.
Step 2
Chop the sun-dried tomatoes into small slices or chunks if they are large.
Step 3
Slice the fresh tomato crosswise into thin rounds.
Step 4
Spread a thin layer of butter on one side of each sourdough bread slice. This will be the outer side of the sandwich during cooking.
Step 5
On the non-buttered side of two bread slices, layer the sandwich fillings: start with a few slices of Brie, then add the fresh tomato slices, a sprinkle of salt and black pepper, the chopped sun-dried tomatoes, and fresh basil leaves. Add another layer of Brie slices on top for extra creaminess.
Step 6
Top the sandwiches with the remaining slices of bread, making sure the buttered sides are facing outward.
Step 7
Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil and allow it to heat for about 30 seconds.
Step 8
Place the sandwiches in the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, pressing gently with a spatula, until the bread is golden and crisp and the Brie is melted and gooey.
Step 9
If necessary, reduce the heat slightly to prevent the bread from burning before the cheese melts fully.
Step 10
Remove from heat, let the sandwiches rest for 1 minute, and then cut them in half for easier enjoyment.
Step 11
Serve immediately for a warm, melty, and flavorful experience!
