Ingredients
- 2 pieces Bread slices
- 2 pieces Ham slices
- 2 pieces Cheddar cheese slices
- 1 piece Swiss cheese slices
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 1 tablespoon Mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 pinch Black pepper
- 1 piece Lettuce leaves
- 1 piece Tomato slice
Directions
Step 1
Spread 1 tablespoon of butter on one side of each slice of bread.
Step 2
In a small bowl, mix mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, and black pepper. Spread this mixture on the unbuttered side of one bread slice.
Step 3
Layer the sandwich by first placing one slice of cheddar cheese on top of the mayonnaise mixture.
Step 4
Add the ham slices on top of the cheddar cheese.
Step 5
Place the Swiss cheese slice on top of the ham.
Step 6
Finally, add a lettuce leaf and one thick tomato slice on top of the Swiss cheese.
Step 7
Close the sandwich with the second slice of bread, buttered side facing outward.
Step 8
Heat a skillet over medium heat and place the sandwich in the skillet, buttered side down.
Step 9
Cook for about 2-3 minutes on one side, or until the bread is golden brown and crispy. Flip the sandwich carefully and cook the other side for another 2-3 minutes to melt the cheese completely.
Step 10
Remove the sandwich from the skillet and let it cool for 1 minute before slicing in half and serving.
