The Recipe
British-Style Cheese and Onion Sandwich for 2
8
Ingredients
DESCRIPTION
About a week ago I found a really good quality imported "extra mature farmhouse cheddar" cheese from the UK and decided to test it in this recipe which was recently featured on thekitchn.com. Use the best ingredients you can if at all possible: homemade bread and mayonnaise, etc. Q: I don't intend to step on any toes (especially British ones) but don't you think bacon/rashers would be delicious in this sandwich? A. yes. The bacon is optional of course. The husband discovered my secret stash of the farmhouse cheddar cheese and now most of it is gone! :/ Serving suggestion that we enjoyed with our sandwiches: C G's Baked Barbecue Beans, hard boiled eggs and fresh fruit. I believe this is my first English recipe posted here but the fine English people have no cause for concern.
INGREDIENTS
- 4 ounces cheese (such as Cheddar, Double Gloucester, Cotswold, or Red Leicester, for example)
- 2 tablespoons finely chopped sweet white onions
- 2 tablespoons finely sliced scallions (I used a combination of scallions and chives)
- 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
- salt and pepper
- 4 slices bread (toasted or untoasted)
- 2 -3 slices bacon, crisply cooked
- butter (leftover Irish butter from St. Patrick's Day...)
