how to make a cheese toastie any tips?
I have had some lovely ones in Holland with sambol and Dutch cheese made by my Dutch friends..
But I cant find Sambol over here,when I bought some back it was confiscated at the airport.
All my efforts seems to end up a soggy mess.

I'd hate to be with you when you're on your own.
Make cheese sandwich, butter outside of the bread, fry in a pan over medium heat, put some pressure on but not enough to squeeze the cheese out. Once the bread has browned the cheese should be melty.
I've only done it with cheddar, and I've been off bread for 6months but this is the method I always used.
Takes me back to being a skint student. In the breville with butter on the outside of the bread. I liked to smother the inside of the bread with ketchup. That always went burning hot and may not have looked too pretty but tasted good !!

Cheaters cheese open faced sandwich, for when you donīt have a breville or canīt be arsed to wash anything but a plate and knife up...toast bread, add slices of cheese, optional Worcestershire sauce, black pepper...microwave for 30-60 seconds depending on quantity of cheese, eat.
butter inside of the bread, load with cheese and a generous splash of Franks Buffalo wings sauce, then fry in a pan with hot oil and the lid on the pan, add more oil and flip.
Crispy on the outside, nice gooey melted in the middle with a buttery taste with a nice kick from the Franks.
Dammit - hungry now!
Try searching for Sambal..or is that something different?Originally Posted by bwest76
Thick, white, day old sour dough: Tickler extra mature cheddar, grated, combine in bowl with Mrs Geeta's mango chutney. Spread on the sliced bread and straight into the George Foreman grill thing-a-me-jig until oozing. Enjoy.
Caution: the mango lumps in the chutney retain the heat.
Toast the slices of bread. Butter, then cover with slices of Cathedral City mature cheese. Top with small pieces or thin slices of chorizo. Grill until the cheese melts. Mmm..nomm..nomm..nomm......
Started out with nothing. Still have most of it left.
Used to go with the Worcestershirshireshear sauce but tried it with English Mustard instead. Never looked back.
I had a Stilton and mango chutney toastie in a Lincoln cafe a few weeks ago, absolutely incredible.

Cheese on toast (open).
Lightly toast bread then butter it.
Add cheese and back under the grill to melt a bit.
Add thinly sliced tomato, black pepper and...... salad cream!
Back under grill for a couple of minutes.
Delicious.
Butter bread on outside. White generally better.
Slices of gruyere
Fry in a pan.
After the first side done, flip and apply some pressure.
A slice of ham helps.
I once made a macaroni cheese toastie with bbq sauce added for extra smoky flavour. Was great!
Usually I use mixture of mature cheddar and mozzarella (both grated), brown seeded loaf, butter outside, into the Breville - bingo. Depends on mood but can go ketchup, bbq sauce, some sort of chilli/hot sauce or good old fashioned Worcester sauce!

That sounds the absolute business, yummers!
This. Add ham and chilli jam to make it more awesome. Excellent results with turkey, brie and cranberry (or chilli jam).
Yep, fried bread will always be, and always stay, crispier than toast every day!
Beans on fried bread beats beans on toast too.

When you look long into an abyss, the abyss looks long into you.........
2 slices of Warburtons Toastie, thick version. Put in toaster on low so it just starts to toast. Leave to go cold. Meanwhile mash anchovys in butter, whisk until creamy. Spread anchovy butter on toast, put under grill. When hot add grated strong cheddar on one slice, when it starts bubbling add sliced tomatoes, grill until hot, grate black pepper on top, add other slice of toast. Eat your flavoursome, crispy toastie. Repeat.
F.T.F.A.
Toast, cheese, microwave, done.
That's the way my 10yr old makes them and to be honest they're not bad.

I've perfected the method, choice of cheese is a personal one.
Frying pan, medium heat. Take two slices of bread (dealer's choice) and layer with chosen cheese and put other slice on top. Some days, slices of cheddar and others a grated concoction. Chuck some butter in the pan, melt it to a nice covering on the base. Put sandwich in pan. Flip after a few mins and mop up any butter left. Heat until chosen blackness.
I've also experimented with meat. Add a touch of pre-cooked bacon. Ham not my favourite as it is harder to bite through and sometimes comes out in a big hot slice. I have some stilton in the fridge so will experiment tomorrow now!
Get a proper sandwich press, like this one:

I am more than happy to send you a jar! Just PM me for details
We have this place reasonably close by. Must make the effort to get back to it, I havent been since lockdown started.

That and many others on Google etc. Is that what the OP was looking for was my question.
You genius thats the stuff.
Ive asked at every Deli I could find, no ones heard of it this side of the sea.
Thats very kind of you,I am also partial to apple stroop,bitter balls and I would die for a Shoarma especially old style with 4 sauces.
Apparently it is!
Reading the reviews maybe not its a bit confusing,from what I gather its from Dutch Indonesian roots .
The stuff my friends use is for toasties.
Thanks to thieuster who has kindly sent me these.
These two just arrived from Holland, the red ones the one I remember in the toasties,now I can experiment.
I cant wait it will be delicious.
For me, the magic ingredient is Marmite!
Failing that, toaster bags work remarkably well

Toast 2 slices of bread per person. Mix together grated mature cheddar, salad cream, wholegrain mustard, a few dashes of Worcester sauce. Put the topping on the toast and grill until bubbling and going dark brown in places.
Thank me later.
thats not a toastie but sounds nice.
Tried that today Bob - top recipe!.

Mayo instead of butter in the frying pan
Bought one of these many years ago from John Lewis as we got fed up with the silly Breville ones and it has never missed a beat
Cheese toastie simple butter the bread then sliced mature cheddar ( can add anything else at this stage) then butter the outside of the sarnie once assembled into the press and viola
There is a big difference between a toastie, cheese on toast or some sort of french toast otherwise known as a Heart Attack ina pan.

Not had any form of cheese on toast/cheese toastie since I had the Welsh Rarebit at St John.
Pleased you enjoyed it Chris! I use that "double toasting" method whenever I make toast now, it gets rid of a lot of the moisture in the bread and makes it nice and crisp. Butter and Tesco Finest blackcurrant conserve is also a favourite!
I normally have cheese, but I thought I'd try ham for a change. Big mistake, and boy was I sick. Seems I was suffering from Mixingmatoasties.
Ten, fifteen years ago when I was still teaching Dutch, I had to 'patrol' (oversee) the school's auditorium during lunch breaks once a week. We don't do School Lunches here in Holland. So everybody brings his/her own. Mostly mum's sandwiches. A lot of kids chuck that away in the bin. And replace it with the supermarkets' unhealthiest foods available.
One of my colleagues came up with the 'bring your own toastie' concept. We (school) bought a bunch of these toastie irons and every kid was allowed to deliver his/her toastie at the counter in exchange for a small saucer with a number on it The school janitor installed a digital counter and when one's number came up on the wall, that pupil could walk up the counter to collect the toastie often with buying milk, water. (We don't sell unhealthy food). Same system McDonald's uses when it comes to collecting orders. That was and still is a great success. Like here on the forum, kids started to 'compose' their own favourite combo and shared it with other pupils at the tables.
Nowadays we have 12 of these irons lined up and they're heated up 15 mins before every break. Due to Covid, the school has changed it's logistics: before school starts, pupils can bring their toastier-to-be to the kitchen counter. Where they're are stored in a fridge. Then the nice lady in the kitchen heats them and one or two pupils with mouth masks have 'toastie-duty': they collect the toasties and bring them to the tables where the toastier-owner sits. (Sadly, pupils are no longer allowed to walk freely in the auditorium...).

This but use mayo instead of butter on the outside. Itll change your life!
Also more than 1 type of cheese is a bonus.
Mayo is the devil's semen.

Here we go as I have time today,a toastie with a cup of soup these Heinz are very good.
It had a nice kick with the oelek sambal,I think a proper toastie machine would seal it and improve it.

Images jumbled.
toast 2 slices of good bread under a proper grill, while toasting grate some decent cheddar. take out bread toasted on one side only, add grated cheese to untoasted side, plus red onion, black pepper and some finely chopped ham bits....put back under grill until bubbling and browning. take out, add branston, slam the two topped slices together and bingo!

...the one pictured IS a Breville?

For anyone else owning this, does it struggle to close 'flat' if you have a few fillings? The chap in this video struggles with it, 2min 10sec onwards:
