Sandwich Ingredients

Method

Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Toast the Brioche

    Heat a skillet over medium heat. Spread butter on one side of each slice of brioche. Place the bread butter-side down in the skillet and toast until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Tomato

    While the bread is toasting, slice the tomato into thick slices.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Sandwich

    Once the brioche is toasted, place a slice of cheddar cheese on one piece of bread. Top with tomato slices and pickles. Drizzle truffle oil over the top, then place the second slice of bread on top.

  4. 4

    Finish and Serve

    Press down gently on the sandwich and return it to the skillet, cooking for another 2-3 minutes until the cheese is melted and the bread is golden. Cut in half and serve with salt and pepper fries.
