Ingredients

  • 2 slices really good bread
  • 1/2 - 1 cup shredded cheddar
  • chili crisp to taste
  • 1 tbsp butter

Instructions

  • Place the two slices of bread (open faced) on a cutting board. Top the bottom slice of bread with shredded cheddar and dot generously with chili crisp, or to taste.
  • Melt half a tablespoon of butter in a non-stick pan on medium low heat. Carefully add the cheese topped bread and top with the other slice of bread.
  • Cook slowly on medium-low heat until golden brown and toasty. If your cheese isn’t melting as fast as you like, use a lid to cover your sandwich but keep an eye on the bottom, checking every so often so that the bottom doesn’t burn.
  • When it’s golden and toasty, carefully flip your sandwich and continue grilling. The second-side grills a bit faster, so turn the heat down to low and keep a close eye on it. When perfect, remove from the pan, slice (or not) and  enjoy hot!
