Description

The perfect grilled cheese sandwich is one of humankind’s highest accomplishments. Perfectly toasted bread meets warm, melty cheese. This delicious cheese toastie that uses three cheeses for that cheesy flavor hit!


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 2 slices of your favorite bread
  • 1/3 cup gruyère, grated
  • 1/3 cup mature cheddar, grated
  • 1 tbsp double cream brie, small slices
  • 1/2 tsp paprika
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tsp oregano
  • Butter, room temperature
  • Dijon mustard

Instructions

  1. Mix the gruyère, brie, and cheddar; seasoning them with paprika, pepper and oregano.
  2. Generously butter one side of both slices of bread. And put mustard on the other.
  3. Place the cheese mixture on the mustard side of the bread. And sandwich using the remaining slice of bread.
  4. Fry the sandwich over a low-medium heat (preferably using a non-stick pan), put a lid on the pan to help the cheese melt quickly. There’s no need to butter/oil the pan as you’ve already buttered the outsides of your sandwich.
  5. Cook till golden brown, flip, and repeat on the other side. Typically, 1-3 minutes per side. Enjoy immediately!
