Kimchi Cheese Sandwich
Kimchi Grilled Cheese Sandwich is an easy, cheesy, spicy, and tangy sandwich that's perfect for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It's made with kimchi, mozzarella cheese, and bread slices grilled to get a crispy crust.
Ingredients
- 1/2 tbsp butter
- 1/2 cup kimchi chopped
- 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese grated
- 1/4 cup plain mayonnaise
- 4 bread slices
Instructions
- Melt butter in a pan. Add roughly chopped kimchi to it. Drain the juice if any. Saute it for 3-5 minutes. Turn off the flame and cool down.
- Meanwhile, coat one side of each bread slice with mayo generously. Instead of mayo, you can also use butter.
- Place two slices of bread on the griddle, facing the mayo-coated side down. Spread the sauteed kimchi on top of it evenly. Then spread the cheese. Top it with another slice of bread, facing the mayo-coated side top. Press it gently.
- Cook it in a low-medium flame. Low flame melts the cheese nice and uniform without burning the bread slices. Turn to cook other side.
- Apply a coat of mayo while cooking. Once the cheese melts down completely and bread has become golden brown on both the side, transfer the sandwich to a chopping board.
- Slice and serve warm.

Notes
- Always cook the sandwich on low to medium flame. It gives enough time to melt the cheese perfectly without burning the bread slices. Low flame is the key for a perfect melted cheese and perfect golden crust.
- Apply butter or mayo generously to get perfect crispy and tasty bread.
- Make sure the cheese is at room temperature for uniform melting. If you find it difficult to handle the shredded cheese, use cheese slices.
