Ingredients
- 50g salted butter
- 4 slices sourdough
- 4 slices thick-cut ham
- 100g pear chutney
- 180g blue cheese, cut into 45g slices
- oil, for frying
- 2 eggs
- 2 gherkins, to serve (optional)
Method
- STEP 1
Spread the butter over one side of each slice of bread, then put the slices on a chopping board, butter-side down. Divide the ham between two of the slices, then spread the chutney over the ham and top with the cheese. Sandwich with the other two bread slices, buttered-sides out.
- STEP 2
One at a time, fry the sandwiches in a pan over a medium heat for 3-4 mins until golden and crisp, then turn and repeat, pressing down firmly using a spatula or fish slice until the cheese has melted.
- STEP 3
Meanwhile, heat a drizzle of oil in a second frying pan over a medium heat and fry the eggs until crisp around the edges. Cut the sandwiches in half and serve with the fried eggs on top and a gherkin each on the side, if you like.
