Classic Chilli Cheese Toast Recipe
As one of my earlier post mentioned Nabeel has taken to sandwiches and I am now exploring different ways and recipes to keep his interest in them alive. The latest one being Chilli Cheese Toast. It has cheese which Nabeel loves to indulge in, chilli which he enjoys consuming once in a while (yes, he licks up spicy curries and eats the hottest of chutneys and snacks) and bread which is also one of his favourite food. Besides, for me it is a blink and make recipe for which I need no preparation at all. Just a quick urge for something cheesy or a surprising request from my husband is all that is needed to quickly whip up this dish.
- step 1 – Mix all the ingredients, except the bread and cheese slices in a bowl.
- Step 2 – Apply the prepared mixture on the bread slices.
- Step 3 – Cut 1 cm wide long strips on the cheese slices and arrange them in criss-cross pattern over the layered bread slices.
- Step 4 – Place the bread slices in a pre-heated oven for about 5 minutes or till the cheese melt and the bread toasts enough, as per your preference.
- Step 5 – Serve immediately.
- Tips: 1) Go easy on the salt as the recipe uses copious amounts of butter and cheese which already have a lot of salt in them.
- 2) You may choose to use 1 whole cheese slice per bread slice but the only difficulty would be in eating as hot sliced cheese sticks to the teeth making it uncomfortable to enjoy the dish. Strips of cheese, as suggested, work out much better.
