This fried bologna and egg sandwich, topped with sizzled tomatoes and melted cheese is ready in 15 minutes and is the perfect recipe for a lazy weekend brunch.

Provided by Kate

Categories     Breakfast

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 tbsp. butter, divided
1 inch-thick slice of bread
1 egg
2 - 3 slices bologna
1 - 3 slices ripe tomato
1 - 2 slices Havarti cheese, or other melting cheese of your choice
freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat broiler on high.
  • Cut a rectangle out of the middle of the bread, approximately 1 inch by 2 inches.
  • In a large skillet, melt 1/2 tbsp. butter on medium heat, swirling the butter around to cover the surface of the pan.
  • Once butter is sizzling, add the bread to the pan. Crack the egg into the hole in the bread.
  • Cook for approximately 2 minutes. If you prefer your egg less runny, add 1 - 2 additional minutes to the cooking time, but be sure to peek under the bread during cooking and if it's getting too brown, turn heat down.
  • Using a spatula, flip the bread over, making sure the bread lands on the side of the pan rather than the middle.
  • Add the remaining 1/2 tbsp. butter to the empty space in the pan. Add bologna and tomato slices to the pan. Cook bread, bologna and tomato for 2 minutes. Flip bologna and tomato during cooking time to ensure even browning. Turn down heat if they are browning too fast.
  • Remove bread to an oven-safe tray. Add tomato slices on top of the bread, then pile on the bologna. Top with cheese slice(s). Broil for 2 - 3 minutes or until cheese is bubbly and slightly brown. Watch carefully during broiling to avoid burning.
  • Remove from tray onto a serving plate. Top with freshly ground black pepper and serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Choose the right bread: A sturdy bread, such as sourdough or a hearty Italian loaf, will hold up well to the fillings and prevent the sandwich from getting soggy.
  • Spread a flavorful base: A thin layer of mayonnaise, mustard, or a combination of both adds a creamy, tangy flavor to the sandwich.
  • Layer on the bologna: Use thick slices of bologna for a satisfying bite. Overlapping the slices will help to keep the sandwich together.
  • Add your favorite toppings: Cheese, lettuce, tomato, onion, and pickles are all classic bologna sandwich toppings. Get creative and add other toppings that you enjoy, such as avocado, bacon, or fried egg.
  • Season to taste: A sprinkle of salt and pepper will help to enhance the flavors of the sandwich.
  • Grill or pan-fry the sandwich: This will give the bread a crispy exterior and help to melt the cheese. If you're grilling the sandwich, be sure to grease the grill grates to prevent sticking.

Conclusion:

The bologna sandwich is a classic for a reason. It's simple to make, delicious, and satisfying. With a few simple tips, you can make a bologna sandwich that's even better than the sum of its parts. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy lunch or dinner, give the bologna sandwich a try. You won't be disappointed.
