Ingredients
- 2 pieces Bread (sliced, preferably sourdough or white)
- 0.5 cups Cheddar cheese (shredded or thinly sliced)
- 2 stalks Spring onions (finely chopped, green and white parts)
- 2 tablespoons Butter (softened)
- 1 tablespoon Mayonnaise (optional)
- 1 pinch Black pepper (freshly ground, optional)
Directions
Step 1
Gather all the ingredients and ensure the butter is softened for easy spreading.
Step 2
Spread a thin, even layer of butter on one side of each slice of bread. If you're using mayonnaise, spread it on the unbuttered side of one slice for extra richness.
Step 3
On one slice of bread (buttered side facing down), evenly distribute half of the shredded cheese.
Step 4
Add the finely chopped spring onions over the cheese, spreading them evenly to ensure every bite has a balance of onion flavor.
Step 5
Sprinkle the black pepper over the spring onions, if desired.
Step 6
Top the onions with the remaining cheese and place the second slice of bread on top, buttered side facing up.
Step 7
Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium-low heat.
Step 8
Place the sandwich onto the skillet. Cook for 3-4 minutes on the first side, pressing gently with a spatula to help achieve a golden and crisp texture.
Step 9
Flip the sandwich carefully and cook for another 3-4 minutes until the second side is golden brown and the cheese is fully melted.
Step 10
Remove the sandwich from the skillet and allow it to cool slightly for 1-2 minutes. This helps the melted cheese set slightly for easier slicing.
Step 11
Cut the sandwich in half, if desired, and serve immediately. Enjoy your flavorful Spring Onion Grilled Cheese Sandwich!
