Steps
Steps
- 1Spread the butter over one side of each slice of bread, right to the edges.
- 2Lay two slices butter side down and pile the cheddar on them, leaving 5 mm free at the edges. Top with the other slices, butter side up.
- 3Heat a heavy frying pan over medium-low heat; no extra fat is needed. Gentle heat melts the cheese before the bread burns.
- 4Cook the sandwiches for 3–4 minutes, pressing lightly with a spatula, until the underside is deep golden.
- 5Flip them, cover the pan with a lid for the first minute to help the cheese melt, then cook uncovered for 3 minutes more until golden and oozing.
- 6Rest for 1 minute, cut diagonally and serve hot.
