How to make grilled toasties?

[anon2334]

Is George Foreman grill good for this? My kids decided it's their favorite

[Whitney168]

Yep, definitely the easiest way, I reckon.

I just make a cheese sandwich and microwave for about 1 1.5 minutes then put under the grill works really well

I meant 1 to 1 and a half minutes

Non stick pan, butter the outsides.

Does all the cheese not come out?

I just lightly toast bread then put cheese in middle, then toast under grill.

Or do same step one then butter the outside and fry.

No need to buy any more equipment IMO.

We use a George foreman for everyday lunches and if I’m feeling particularly kind then it’s a nonstick pan with the outside of the bread buttered.

Honestly can't beat a Breville. You forget all about having one and then eat toasties for about 3 weeks straight.

A George Foreman type grill is a really easy way to do them and you can also cook a lot of other things on them as well so better than a toasty machine which is shaped in triangles.

I have a sandwich toaster, a good grill and since I discovered buttering the outside and pan frying I've not looked back. Want a sandwich toaster?

Non stick pan, butter the outsides.

Me to, push it down with a fish slice to get good contact, or weight it down with a smaller pan.

Get a Crimpie from Crimpet and buy thins and toast with all kinds of fillings of your choose!

There is even a FB group for ideas!

I use my air fryer for toasties now. Come out amazing .

My 2p worth - frying pan is all the kit you need! (Any electric grill is just a dust-gathering space-hog for 98% of the year once the fad has passed).

Brown bread, butter on the outside, mayo on the inside. DH likes tuna mayo and cheese, I prefer cheese and onion!

They are not healthy but YUM! I serve with a side salad to try to pretend it's part of a balanced diet :)

We’ve been making our ‘toastiest’ this way for years. Mimics the actual toasted sandwich maker taste.

I just use a frying pan - make cheese sandwich, butter the outsides, cook in pan. I did have a toastie maker years ago but it took longer to clean than to make the toasties!

I read that as hair dryer.

[JurasicPerks]

Butter the outside of a cheese (and tomato and ham) sandwich, then put in the oven for 10 mins. Flip over, and another 10 mins.
Makes them easier to cook in bulk.

Breville panini press are totally the best. George formby grills get really manky and are never hot enough.

[mrburrsir]

You can put cheese in between two bits of toast wrap in kitchen roll and microwave for a minute or two. Works quite well but not as nice as proper grilled cheese toaster

[Vanillalatteplease]

Yep non stick pan but mayo on the outside. Makes a lovely crispy grilled cheese sandwich

Mine is actually a Tefal something or other, plates come off and go in the dishwasher. Definitely hot enough and makes great easy toasties.
