Ingredients
- 8 bread slices
- 1 capsicum, sliced
- 1 onion, sliced
- 1 tomato, sliced
- 1/2 cup grated cheese
- Green chutney, butter, salt, pepper
Method
- Spread butter and a layer of green chutney evenly on one side of each bread slice, right up to the edges.
- Layer thin slices of capsicum, onion and tomato on half the slices, then scatter grated cheese generously over the top — the cheese acts like glue once melted, holding the vegetables in place. Season with salt and pepper.
- Close each sandwich with the second slice, buttered side in, and butter the two outer faces as well — this is what gives a grilled sandwich its golden, crisp crust.
- Heat a sandwich press or tawa until hot. Grill the sandwiches, pressing down firmly if using a tawa, until the outside turns deep golden-brown and crisp and the cheese inside has fully melted (you'll feel the sandwich give slightly when pressed once the cheese has melted).
- Cut into triangles while hot, so the melted cheese doesn't set and pull apart messily, and serve immediately with ketchup.
