Equipment
- Non-stick Skillet
- Spatula
- Mixing Bowl
- Grater
- Measuring Spoons
Ingredients
- 6 slices bread choose from brown, white, or multi-grain
- 2 tablespoons softened butter
- 3 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
- 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
- 7-8 ounces aged Irish cheddar shredded
- ½ teaspoon cracked black pepper
- 1 tablespoon fresh chopped chives
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, cracked black pepper, and chopped chives until well combined. Stir in the shredded aged Irish cheddar until even.
- Take your slices of bread and spread a layer of softened butter on one side of each slice. On the unbuttered side, add a generous portion of the cheese filling. Top with another slice of bread, butter side up.
- Heat your non-stick skillet over medium heat. Once hot, place the assembled toasties in the skillet. Cook for about 3-4 minutes until the bottom is golden brown. Carefully flip with a spatula, and continue to cook for another 3-4 minutes until both sides are perfectly crisp and the cheese is melted.
- Remove the toasties from the skillet and let them rest for a minute before slicing in half. Serve warm, perhaps with a side salad or your favorite dipping sauce. Enjoy the gooey, cheesy goodness!
Notes
- Use thicker slices of bread like sourdough for better texture and sturdiness.
- Make sure the skillet is preheated to get a crispy, golden crust without burning the butter.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days and reheat in a skillet for best results.
- You can freeze uncooked assembled toasties wrapped tightly; thaw overnight before cooking.
- Customize with seasonal veggies like spinach, tomatoes, or mushrooms for added flavor and nutrition.
