Ingredients
- 4 pieces Ham slices
- 4 pieces Cheddar cheese slices
- 4 slices Sandwich bread
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 2 cups Green cabbage
- 1 small Carrot
- 0.25 cup Mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon Apple cider vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Sugar
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.125 teaspoon Black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Prepare the coleslaw: Finely shred the green cabbage and grate the carrot using a box grater or food processor. Add them to a large mixing bowl.
Step 2
In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, sugar, salt, and black pepper to form the coleslaw dressing.
Step 3
Pour the dressing over the cabbage and carrot mixture. Toss until the vegetables are evenly coated. Cover and refrigerate while preparing the rest of the sandwich.
Step 4
Butter one side of each slice of bread using the unsalted butter.
Step 5
Heat a skillet or griddle over medium heat. Place two slices of bread, buttered side down, in the skillet.
Step 6
Add two slices of ham and two slices of cheese on top of each piece of bread in the skillet.
Step 7
Top with the remaining slices of bread, buttered side up. Cook for 2–3 minutes, pressing gently with a spatula, until the bottom is golden brown.
Step 8
Carefully flip the sandwiches and cook the other side for another 2–3 minutes, or until the bread is golden and the cheese is melted.
Step 9
Remove the sandwiches from the skillet, slice them in half if desired, and serve with a generous portion of the chilled coleslaw on the side or inside the sandwich for extra crunch.
