Step 6
Spread the top and bottom of the sandwiches evenly with the butter.
Step 7
Take a heavy-based frying pan and place over a low heat.
Step 8
Carefully lay the sandwiches in the pan and slowly heat, so that the bottom of the sandwich turns crisp and golden, which takes about 3-4 minutes.
Step 9
Flip the sandwiches over and cover the pan with a lid, so that the cheese melts.

Check every minute or so to make sure the bottom of the sandwich doesn’t burn.

Once the sandwich is golden brown on the bottom and the cheese is oozing out, remove from the pan and cut each one in half.

Allow them to cool a little before eating.
