Ingredients
- 2 slices of bread
- 3 slices of smoked beef
- 2 slices of cheddar or mozzarella
- 1 tbsp butter
- 1 tsp mustard or mayonnaise
- Lettuce (optional)
Method
- Sear the smoked beef in a dry pan until the edges brown, about a minute per side.
- Butter the outside of both slices; spread mustard or mayonnaise on the inside.
- Layer cheese, smoked beef, then cheese again. Cheese on both sides holds the filling together when you cut it.
- Toast the sandwich in a pan over low heat, pressing gently, 3–4 minutes per side.
- Lift it out when the bread is golden and the cheese has melted. Rest for a minute before slicing.
Tips
- Low heat is not optional: high heat burns the bread before the cheese melts.
- This works as a cafe breakfast item because everything can be prepped early.
