HEIDI'S FRIED CHEESE SANDWICH
My first culinary 'experience'. I must have been about 7, reading Heidi. This recipe was in the edition I was reading and I had to run to the kitchen and try it out immediately. Mom watched. Still fantastic! Expect something like a savoury-cheesey French Toast.

Steps:
- Butter the bread generously and layer the cheese between the two pieces.
- Beat the egg with the milk in a container large enough to contain the sandwich and season lightly (don't forget the cheese has salt too).
- Allow the sandwich to absorb the egg/milk mixture- turn over 1/2 way through so the other side absorbs some too.
- This should take about 10-15 minutes so as much of the custard is absorbed as possible.
- Drop a tablespoonful of butter into a skillet (cast iron is best), on medium heat.
- When it bubbles and smells very fragrant, add the sandwich and fry on both sides till a lovely dark-golden-brown and the cheese is all gooey and melted.
- Put it on your best plate, pour yourself a big glass of milk, get out a fork and knife and enjoy.
- Note: The texture of this is not like a regular grilled sandwich as the bread becomes moist and puffy because of the egg/milk soaking.
