With a crispy exterior and a gooey, savory filling, these toasties are sure to become a family favorite. Let's delve into the making of this simple yet flavorful recipe using common ingredients you probably already have in your pantry.
Instructions:
- Grate the cheddar cheese and set aside.
- Lay out the slices of ham and bread on your working surface.
- On a slice of bread, place a slice of ham and sprinkle with a bit of the grated cheddar cheese.
- Top with another slice of bread.
- Repeat this process to make a total of 15 toasties (or fewer if you prefer more cheese and ham per sandwich).
- In a shallow dish, crack the eggs and beat them well until the yolks and whites are fully combined.
- Place a large skillet or frying pan over medium heat.
- Add the butter and let it melt, ensuring it coats the bottom of the pan evenly.
- Take each assembled sandwich and dip it into the beaten eggs, ensuring both sides are well-coated.
- Carefully place the egg-dunked sandwich into the hot skillet.
- Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until the bread is golden brown and crispy, and the cheese has melted.
- Once cooked, transfer the toasties to a plate.
- Serve hot, perhaps with a side salad or some pickle for a bit of zing.
Tips:
- Opt for a hearty, thick-cut white bread to ensure the toasties hold up well during cooking.
- Use freshly grated cheddar cheese for a creamier and more melted filling.
- Feel free to add a pinch of salt and pepper to the egg mixture for an added layer of flavor.
- You can use a non-stick skillet to make flipping the toasties easier and prevent sticking.
- If you're feeling adventurous, try adding a slice of tomato or a few spinach leaves for a fresh twist on this classic recipe.
