Grilled cheese – American pan-fried cheese sandwich Recipe
Grilled cheese is a simple yet very satisfying sandwich with melted cheese, fried in butter in a pan. In the USA it’s often served to children as a quick lunch, usually with tomato soup. It’s a bit like a Polish open-faced baked sandwich, only closed and much more buttery.

Ingredients
- toast bread - 4 slice
- yellow cheese - 80 g
- butter - 30 g
- mustard - 1 teaspoon
- pepper - 1 pinch
Main Ingredient:
yellow cheese
Preparation
- Lay the slices of bread out on a board. On one side of each slice, spread a thin layer of soft butter – this will be the outside of the sandwich.
- Turn two slices butter-side down. Place slices of cheese on top so they cover almost the entire surface.
- If you like a more pronounced flavor, spread a thin layer of mustard over the cheese and sprinkle with a pinch of pepper.
- Cover each sandwich with the second slice of bread, butter on the outside.
- Heat a pan over medium heat. Place the sandwiches in the pan and fry for 3–4 minutes on one side, gently pressing down with a spatula, until the bread is golden and crispy.
- Flip the sandwiches and fry for another 2–3 minutes, until the cheese inside is completely melted – you can slightly lift one slice to peek inside.
- If the bread is browning too quickly, lower the heat so the cheese has time to melt without the crust burning.
- Remove the finished sandwiches from the pan, wait 1–2 minutes so the cheese is no longer boiling hot, then cut diagonally into triangles.

Najlepiej zjeść od razu po przygotowaniu, bo chleb mięknie, a ser twardnieje. Jeśli zostanie, przechowuj w lodówce zawinięte w folię i podgrzej na suchej patelni na małym ogniu, dociskając, aż ser znów się rozpuści.
