using your sandwich toaster
5.
Add the filling. The deeper cooking plates allow you to use more of your favourite
ingredients but always allow a 2cm gap around the filling as shown below. This will
allow your sandwich toaster to form a good seal and prevent the filling from leaking
out.
For best results, the maximum amount of cheese, when used as a single ingredient,
should not exceed 60g. If you add other ingredients, reduce the amount of cheese to
compensate for them.
6. Place the remaining bread on top with the buttered side on the outside (this will give
your toastie a lovely golden colour during cooking).
7. Close and latch the lid and allow to cook for approx 4-5 minutes until golden and
cooked. Leave the sandwich in the toaster for more or less time according to taste.
8. Release the latch and open the lid. Watch out for escaping steam—use a tea towel
or wear oven gloves. Remove the cooked sandwich with a non-metallic spatula.
Don’t use a metal blade as this can damage the non-stick surface of the plates.
9.
Once cooked, take care when eating as fillings, especially fruit or tomato, can be
very hot.
Important points:
•
Always allow a 2cm gap around the filling.
•
Never overfill your toastie.
•
Too much filling can leak out and also make the latch difficult to close.
