For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a thin smear of Dijon mustard to the bread before the chutney. Feel free to experiment with different cheeses, such as Gruyere or Havarti. If mango chutney is not available, apricot preserves or fig jam can be substituted. Ensure even cooking by using a skillet large enough to accommodate the sandwiches without overcrowding.

Follow The Directions
01
StepGenerously spread mango chutney onto two slices of bread, ensuring even distribution. (2 minutes)
02
StepArrange three slices of Black Forest ham atop the chutney-covered bread, followed by two slices of aged white Cheddar cheese on each. (3 minutes)
03
StepCrown the cheese with the remaining bread slices. Lightly butter the exterior of the assembled sandwiches on both sides, creating a golden crust. (2 minutes)
04
StepPlace the buttered sandwiches in a preheated large skillet over medium heat. Cook until golden brown and beautifully crisp, about 3 minutes per side.
05
StepCarefully flip the sandwiches and continue cooking until the cheese is fully melted, gooey, and the second side is equally golden brown, approximately 2-3 minutes. (5 minutes)
06
StepRemove from skillet, let cool slightly before slicing. Serve immediately and savor the symphony of flavors.

Apr 14, 2025I used apricot jam because I didn't have mango chutney, and it was still delicious!

Apr 2, 2025My bread got a little too dark before the cheese was fully melted. Next time, I'll use a lower heat.
