SIMPLE FRIED EGG SANDWICH

My daughter really likes this sandwich. She usually has 2 at a time. The mustard used in this recipe can only be found in Ontario, Canada as far as I know. So some Canadians will know it. You can substitute though. Just don't use the regular kind unless you want to of course.

Categories     main-dish

Time 20m

Yield 1 serving

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 tablespoon ketchup
1/2 teaspoon chipotle in adobo sauce
2 slices sourdough bread
2 slices Cheddar
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 slice bacon, halved
1 egg

Steps:

  • Combine the ketchup and chipotle and spread on the inside of each piece of bread. Place the cheese between the bread at an angle so that the edges hangover the sides of the bread. Butter the outside of one bread slice with half the butter. Heat a skillet over medium heat. Press the sandwich on, buttered-side down. Press until the bread is golden brown and the cheese has started to melt. Butter the other side (which is facing up) with the remaining butter and flip. Cook until golden brown and the cheese is gooey, this should all take 3 to 4 minutes. Remove the sandwich from the heat and hold.
  • Meanwhile, in a pan over medium heat, cook the bacon until barely crisp, about 5 minutes. Flip the bacon, pushing the two pieces next to each other to form a square. Crack the egg on top, cooking into the bacon. Continue cooking until the egg is set, about 5 minutes. Open up the sandwich (use a spoon to help pull apart the bread) and slide in the eggs and bacon. Close up, slice and enjoy.

  • To make a fluffy scrambled egg, whisk the eggs in a bowl with a splash of milk or water, then cook them in a non-stick skillet over medium heat, stirring constantly until cooked through.
  • For a perfectly poached egg, bring a pot of water to a simmer, then add a splash of vinegar and carefully crack an egg into the water. Cook for 3-4 minutes, or until the white is set and the yolk is still runny.
  • To assemble a classic fried egg sandwich, simply place a fried egg on a toasted English muffin or bagel, top with cheese, and add your favorite toppings, such as bacon, ham, avocado, or tomato.
  • For a more decadent sandwich, try using a fried egg with a runny yolk, and top it with melted cheese, avocado, and crispy bacon.
