Broccoli-and-cheese toastie

Serves 4

Difficulty Easy

Prep Time 10 minutes

Cooking Time 20 minutes

Ingredients

8 large free-range eggs
4 T extra virgin olive oil
1 head broccoli, thinly sliced
sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
12 thick slices bread
125 g mayonnaise
100 g mozzarella, grated
100 g pecorino , grated
100 g butter
4 T pickled onions

Method

1. Bring a saucepan of salted water to the boil and prepare a bowl of iced water. Gently lower the eggs into the pan, one at a time, and boil for 6 minutes. Once cooked, transfer the eggs to the bowl of iced water. Carefully peel each egg, rinsing to remove any pieces of shell. Cut the eggs in half and set aside.

2. Heat the olive oil in a pan. Fry the broccoli and season. Set aside.

3. Toast 4 slices of bread – these will be in the middle of the sandwich. Place 4 untoasted slices of bread on a board and spread with some of the mayonnaise. Layer on some mozzarella then add a couple of slices of broccoli and two egg halves. Top with the toasted bread, then the pecorino, more broccoli and another two egg halves. Spread more mayonnaise on the remaining untoasted bread and close the sandwiches.

4. Heat a large, non-stick pan and spread butter on the outside of the sandwiches. Place into the pan and toast the sandwiches on both sides over a medium heat until golden brown and crispy. Remove from the pan and cut in half. Serve warm.
