Grilled Cheese Sandwich
There’s something undeniably comforting about a perfectly crafted grilled cheese sandwich, with its golden, buttery crust and gooey, melted center. In just 10 minutes, you can create this classic dish that balances crispiness and creaminess in every bite.
Ingredients
- 2 slices sourdough bread
- Mayonnaise
- Dijon mustard
- 1 to 2 ounces grated sharp cheddar cheese depending on the size of your bread
- 1 to 2 ounces grated Gruyère or raclette cheese depending on the size of your bread
- Butter for the pan
Instructions
- Place the bread slices on a cutting board and spread the top side with a thin layer of mayo. Flip one slice of bread and spread its other side with Dijon mustard. Layer the cheddar and Gruyère or Raclette cheeses on top of the mustard, then place the other slice of bread on top of the cheese, mayo side out.
- Heat a nonstick or cast-iron skillet over medium-low heat and melt enough butter in the bottom of the pan to coat it. Place the sandwich in the pan, cover, and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, or until the bottom slice of bread is golden brown and crisp. Flip, replace the lid, and cook until the other slice of bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted, 1 to 3 minutes. Reduce the heat to low if the bread is getting too brown before the cheese is fully melted.
- Slice and serve.
