Posted: 16 Jun 2020, 04:51
4 tbsp. (2 oz.) unsalted butter, melted
2 cups grated sharp cheddar (8 1/2 oz.)
1 large tomato, thinly sliced
1⁄2 white onion, very thinly sliced
Salt and pepper, to taste
3 tbsp. Mrs. Ball's brand chutney, or another sweet and sour chutney
Prepare a grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Meanwhile, brush one side of each bread slice with the melted butter. Lay the bread, buttered side down, on a work surface. Divide the cheese between 4 slices, then top with 1–2 slices tomato and onion; season lightly with salt and pepper to taste. Spread the chutney over the remaining slices of bread, then place them chutney side down atop the sandwiches. Using a grill basket if desired, grill, turning once, until the bread is toasted and the cheese is melted, about 3 minutes per side.
