Toasted Sandwiches

Okay so we all make toasted sandwiches but we don’t use a sandwich maker, we use a frying pan. I love these sandwiches, they have few crusts and turn out perfectly delicious especially with tea.
Ingredients:

Bread
Butter/Margarine
Filling of your choice (we use leftovers every Monday night but cheese is our favourite)
Method:

Spread 1 side of the bread with margarine or butter. Place the buttered sides together and put your desired topping on the unbuttered side. Heat a frying pan lightly covered with spray and cook. Place the sandwich, buttered sides out, into the frying pan. Using an egg lifter flip the sandwich once browned pushing down to ensure the 2 slices adhere to one another while cooking.

And there you have it delicious, low crust toasted snacks. Great ideas for fillings are:
Chicken mayonnaise, Curry and rice, spaghetti bolognaise, mince, cheese and ham or anything else you have in your fridge. It saves me a fortune in spoiled foods!

Fried Toast

On our yacht we don’t have a toaster (220 volts is not really available whilst at anchor) so we make toast like this:


Ingredients:
Bread
Margarine
Method:
Spread both sides of the bread with margarine and fry in a frying pan greased with spray and cook. Cook both sides.

Serve as you would normal toast, with egg or your favourite spread (no extra margrine necessary)
