Grilled Cheese Sandwich

Fries

Method

Grilled Cheese Sandwich

  1. 1

    Prepare the Bread and Cheese

    Take 2 slices of bread and lay them flat on a clean surface. Place a slice of cheddar cheese on top of each slice of bread.

  2. 2

    Assemble the Sandwich

    Top the cheese with the remaining 2 slices of bread to create two sandwiches.

  3. 3

    Butter the Bread

    Spread 1 tablespoon of butter on the outer side of each sandwich.

  4. 4

    Grill the Sandwich

    Heat a skillet or frying pan over medium heat. Place the sandwiches in the pan, buttered side down. Cook for about 3-4 minutes or until golden brown.

  5. 5

    Flip and Grill

    Carefully flip the sandwiches and spread the remaining butter on the outer side. Grill for another 3-4 minutes until the other side is golden brown and the cheese is melted.

  6. 6

    Remove and Slice

    Once cooked, remove the sandwiches from the pan and let them cool for a minute before slicing them in half.

Fries

  1. 7

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Wash and peel the potatoes. Cut them into thin strips to resemble fries.

  2. 8

    Heat the Oil

    In a large pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).

  3. 9

    Fry the Potatoes

    Carefully add the potato strips to the hot oil in batches. Fry for about 4-5 minutes or until they are golden brown and crispy. Avoid overcrowding the pot.

  4. 10

    Drain and Season

    Using a slotted spoon, remove the fries from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Sprinkle with salt to taste.
