Ingredients
- 2 pieces Bread slices
- 2 slices Ham
- 2 slices Cheddar cheese
- 1 large Egg
- 1 tablespoon Butter
- 1 teaspoon Mayonnaise (optional)
- 1 pinch Salt
- 1 pinch Black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Step 2
Add a small amount of butter (about 1/2 teaspoon) to the skillet and crack the egg into the pan.
Step 3
Sprinkle the egg with a pinch of salt and black pepper, and cook for 2-3 minutes until the egg white is set and the yolk is slightly runny or fully cooked, depending on your preference. Remove the egg and set aside.
Step 4
Spread the remaining butter evenly on one side of each bread slice.
Step 5
Place one slice of bread, buttered side down, on the skillet over medium heat.
Step 6
Layer one slice of cheese, followed by the ham slices, the cooked egg, and the second slice of cheese on top of the bread in the skillet.
Step 7
Cover the sandwich with the second bread slice, buttered side up.
Step 8
Cook for 3-4 minutes until the bottom bread is golden brown and crispy. Press down gently with a spatula for even cooking.
Step 9
Carefully flip the sandwich and cook the other side for an additional 3-4 minutes, until golden brown and the cheese is fully melted.
Step 10
Remove the sandwich from the skillet and let it rest for a minute before slicing in half. Serve warm and enjoy!
