How to make Cheesy Egg Toast

Cooking the Egg

  1. In a pan, add a little oil. Crack the egg into the pan and sprinkle with salt and black pepper.

  2. Cover the pan and cook for about 2 minutes, then flip the egg and cook to your liking.

Preparing the Bread

  1. Make the sandwich spread by mixing mayonnaise and ketchup. Spread it on one side of a slice of bread.

  2. Butter the other side of the second slice of bread.

Assembling the Toast

  1. In a pan, place the bread slice with the buttered side down.

  2. Add cheese, then the cooked egg, and more cheese on top of the egg.

  3. Cover with the other slice of bread (sandwich spread side up).

Toasting and Serving

  1. Toast each side until golden brown and the cheese is melted.

  2. Serve immediately and enjoy.

Tips & Tricks

  1. For a richer flavor, use a variety of cheeses such as cheddar, mozzarella, or provolone.

  2. Add a dash of hot sauce or a sprinkle of red pepper flakes for a spicy kick.

  3. If you don't have sandwich spread, mayonnaise or ketchup can be used on its own.

FAQS

  1. Can I use different types of bread for this recipe?

    Yes, you can use any type of bread you prefer, such as whole wheat, sourdough, or brioche.

  2. Can I add vegetables to my cheesy egg toast?

    Absolutely! Adding vegetables like spinach, tomatoes, or mushrooms can enhance the flavor and nutritional value of your toast.

  3. How can I make this recipe vegetarian?

    This recipe is already vegetarian. Just ensure your sandwich spread does not contain any meat-based ingredients.

  4. Can I prepare this toast in advance?

    It is best to serve the toast immediately after preparation to enjoy the melted cheese and warm bread. However, you can prepare the egg and sandwich spread in advance to save time.

  5. What is the best way to melt the cheese evenly?

    Covering the pan while toasting helps to trap heat and melt the cheese evenly. Alternatively, you can broil it in the oven for a minute or two.
