Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Bread

    Spread 1 tablespoon of butter on one side of each slice of bread. This will be the outside of the sandwich.

  2. 2

    Assemble the Sandwich

    On the unbuttered side of two slices of bread, spread 1 tablespoon of Dijon mustard. Layer 4 slices of ham and 4 slices of cheese on top of the mustard. Place the other two slices of bread on top, buttered side facing out.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Heat the Pan

    Preheat a skillet or frying pan over medium heat.

  2. 4

    Cook the Sandwich

    Place the sandwiches in the heated pan. Cook for 3-4 minutes until the bread is golden brown. Carefully flip the sandwiches and cook the other side for another 3-4 minutes until the cheese is melted and the other side is golden brown.

Serving

  1. 5

    Slice and Serve

    Remove the sandwiches from the pan. Let them cool for a minute, then slice in half diagonally. If desired, add pickles and lettuce before serving.
