Method
Preparation
- 1
Prep the Ingredients
Start by slicing the large tomato into thin slices and set aside. Grate or slice the cheddar cheese. You should have enough cheese to cover the bread slices generously.
- 2
Butter the Bread
Take the sourdough bread slices and spread a thin layer of butter on one side of each slice. This will help achieve a golden, crispy exterior when grilled.
Assembly
- 3
Assemble the Sandwich
On the unbuttered side of two slices of bread, layer the grated or sliced cheddar cheese evenly. Top with the tomato slices and season with salt and black pepper to taste.
- 4
Complete the Sandwich
Place the remaining two slices of bread on top of the tomato and cheese layers, ensuring the buttered side is facing out.
Cooking
- 5
Grill the Sandwich
Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Once hot, place the assembled sandwiches in the skillet. Grill for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the bread is golden brown and the cheese has melted.
- 6
Serve
Remove the grilled cheese and tomato sandwiches from the skillet. Allow to cool for a minute, then slice in half and serve immediately.
