Ingredients

  • 2 Bread slices
  • 2 Ham slices
  • 2 Cheese slices
  • 1 tbsp Butter

Instructions

  1. 1Place 2 slices of bread on a clean surface. Spread 1/2 tbsp of butter evenly over one side of each slice of bread.
  2. 2Place a 10-inch skillet over medium heat (325°F/160°C). Wait until the skillet is warm.
  3. 3Place one slice of bread, butter-side down, into the warm skillet. Immediately layer the 2 slices of ham and the 2 slices of cheese on top of the bread in the skillet.
  4. 4Place the second slice of bread on top of the cheese and ham, with the butter-side facing up.
  5. 5Cook for 2 to 3 minutes, or until the bottom slice of bread is golden brown and crisp. You can check by gently lifting an edge with a spatula. The cheese should begin to melt.
  6. 6Carefully flip the sandwich over using a spatula. Cook for another 2 to 3 minutes, or until the second side of the bread is golden brown and crisp, and the cheese is fully melted and gooey.
  7. 7Slide the Tosta Mista from the skillet onto a plate. Serve immediately.
