Prep Time5 minsCook Time15 minsTotal Time20 mins
 4 Slices of baguette bread
 50 g Garlic & herb butter
 75 g Smoked cheddar cheese
 75 g Mature cheddar
 100 g Cooked ham
 2 Spring onion
 1 tsp Mild Mustard
 1 tsp Oil
 1 pinch S&P
1

Slice your bread if needed.
Butter both sides with a generous layer of garlic butter

2

Grate your cheese and add a handful of cheese onto 1 slice of bread and top with ham, spread over some mustard, sprinkle more cheese on top then some spring onions, Season with S&P and place the other slice of bread on top

3

Heat the oil in a pan and add the buttered bread slices and toast for 2-3 mns till the bread has turned golden brown, turn over and repeat

4

Remove from the pan and set aside

5

Sprinkle some cheese in the pan and allow it to bubble and melt

6

Butter the toasted bread again then place on top of the cheese and and press down firmly with a spatula and let it melt together till its golden brown

7

Butter the top slice of bread, turn it over, sprinkle more cheese and repeat the above step for the other side

8

Turn bread onto its side (you can add more cheese here if you like) and grill till golden brown and crispy then repeat for the other side.

9

Remove from the pan, slice and serve with salad for a filling lunch.

10

You can use any bread for this including garlic bread slices -although I would still butter them as I find they can be dry- and any combination of cheese or ham you like
Mild American style mustard works best as it doesn't overpower the garlic
