Equipment

  • 1 frying pan or griddle

Ingredients
  

  • 2 slices crusty bread
  • 60 grams grated cheese
  • 2 tablespoons chutney
  • 1 teaspoon butter

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your pan on medium-low heat and grate the cheese(s)
  • Butter your slices of bread on the outside
  • Spread an even layer of chutney on the inside of one slice, pile the grated cheese onto the other side, and close it up.
  • Place the buttery sandwich into the preheated frying pan. Cover the pan with a lid to help melt the cheese. Keep an eye on the sandwich to make sure the bread isn’t burning. After 4-5 minutes, the first side should be golden brown and the cheese should be melting nicely.
  • Flip the sandwich and cook for another 4-5 minutes on the other side. You don’t need a lid for this part, because the cheese should be mostly melted by now. If at this point the sandwich is golden brown but the cheese isn’t melted, turn the heat down to low, and continue to cook the sandwich while flipping every minute or two so the bread doesn’t burn.

Notes

  • The temperature of your pan or skillet might be different than mine! Start at a medium-low heat and increase it slightly if needed. If the pan is too hot, your bread will burn before the cheese has a chance to melt.
  • Bread sizes vary greatly! The sandwich in the photos here is made on large sourdough slices. If your bread is much smaller, you might want to reduce the amount of cheese and chutney used. (Or just enjoy a super gooey sandwich!)
