For the Cheese Sandwiches
- 2 slices wholemeal bread
- 2 slices cheese
- Chutney optional
- Butter or mayonnaise
To finish:
- 1 egg
- Salt
- Pepper
- Oil or butter for frying
Prevent your screen from going dark
Shallow dish or plate for soaking
Make the sandwiches in your usual way
Heat the oil in a large frying pan on a MEDIUM-HIGH heat
Beat the egg in a shallow dish and season with salt and pepper
Cut each sandwich into quarters
Soak the sandwiches in the beaten egg, pushing them into the egg so that both sides are coated and all the egg is absorbed
Fry until the sandwiches are golden brown and the cheese is melting
About 3 minutes on each side
Serve immediately with salad
- Use any leftover sandwiches you have - they don't have to be cheese
