Number Of Ingredients 5
Steps:
- Heat one tablespoon butter in pan on medium-low heat. Add one slice of bread to the pan and top with two slices of the cheese, all of the ham and apples and then top with the additional cheese and the other slice of bread. After about three or four minutes, pick the sandwich up with a spatula and melt the remaining one tablespoon of butter. Flip the sandwich over to grill the other side. Check after about three or four minutes to make sure it's not over-browning. Flip again and cover with a large lid until the cheese is melted and the sandwich is warm throughout, about two more minutes.
Tips:
- Choose the right bread: A sturdy bread that can hold up to the fillings is best. Some good options include sourdough, French bread, or a hearty whole-wheat bread.
- Use high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients, the better the sandwich will be. Look for fresh, flavorful ham, gouda cheese, and vegetables.
- Don't be afraid to experiment: There are many different ways to make a grilled ham and gouda sandwich. Feel free to add other ingredients that you like, such as bacon, avocado, or tomato.
- Cook the sandwich until the cheese is melted and bubbly: This will ensure that the sandwich is warm and gooey.
- Serve the sandwich immediately: Grilled ham and gouda sandwiches are best enjoyed hot off the grill.
