1 porsi

2 slices bread
1 -2 tablespoons butter, room temperature ((This amount will vary depending on the size of your bread.))
⅓ - ⅔ cup shredded cheese, choose your favorite kinds ((This amount will vary depending on the size of your bread.))

Langkah-langkah

Spread plenty of soft butter on the outside of both pieces of bread. Butter the first slice and drop it butter side down into a hot skillet over medium heat. (If your stove runs hot, start at medium-low.) Cover your slice of bread with shredded cheese. Be generous and use a bit more than you think you need. Top with the second slice of bread, butter side up.
COVER THE PAN WITH A LID. Yes, cover the pan. Let it cook undisturbed for at least a minute. Uncover and check to see if the bottom slice of bread has browned. Let cook until golden brown, usually about 3 minutes on medium heat.
Press down slightly on the top slice to help the cheese stick to both slices. Use a thin spatula to carefully flip the sandwich over. COVER WITH A LID once more.
If your cheeses aren't melting as quickly or smoothly as you'd like (especially if you are using pre-shredded cheeses) add one teaspoon of water to the edge of the pan and quickly cover with the lid. This helps steam the cheese and it melts beautifully!
Check to see if the second slice of bread is golden brown. It should take about 3 minutes on medium heat. When it is ready, remove the sandwich to a plate and enjoy!
