Ingredients
- 350 g of leftover cheese from the cheeseboard, grated
- 8 slices of sourdough bread
- 6 tbsp of leftover cranberry sauce
- 4 tbsp of mayonnaise
- 2 tbsp of butter
Method
Step 1
Put all the cheese into a large bowl and season well.Step 2
Lay out four slices of bread and cover each with a layer of the cheese, using half your cheese mix in total.Step 3
Spoon on the cranberry sauce, dolloping it onto the cheese. Add a final layer of cheese, top with the remaining four slices of bread to form a sandwich.Step 4
Now, this is the important bit: spread the top of each sandwich with ½ tbsp of mayonnaise – this is the ultimate trick to a crispy and golden toastie.Step 5
Heat 1 tbsp of butter in the base of a large frying pan over a medium-high heat. Fry a sandwich, mayonnaise side down, for 4 mins, using a spatula to press them down so they become golden and crisp.Step 6
While it cooks, spread the top with another ½ tbsp of mayonnaise – it’s easiest to do this with the back of a tablespoon.Step 7
Flip and cook the other side for another 4 mins. Remove from the heat and repeat with the other toasties. Slice each in half and serve.
