Sandwich toasters (1 Viewer)

I unearthed our sandwich toaster last night. After a good scrub it was good to go. Cheese toastie in one of these is great, I'm looking forward to cheese and onion toasties and egg toasties at some point in the future. .|..|
Any other recommendations for toasties?
I think Breville was the most famous brand of these machine, they're one of those appliances that are bought used for a few weeks then you can't be arsed cleaning them and you leave them in the cupboard for a decade or more 'til you throw it out and then move in somewhere else where someone gets you a housewarming present of a shiny new sandwich toaster.

I always make fancy once from christmas leftovers - fancy cheese, good homecooked ham, nice mustard and all that happens is I end up thinking the only way to cook with one of these breville jobs is easy singles, plastic ham and a small bit of finely chopped onion.

A few weeks ago I bought a Breville George Foremanish style grill for 50 quid in Power City. I figured I could use it for steaks, rashers aswell as toasted sandwiches. I thought the removable plates were a superb feature so that sealed the deal. I was ecstatic as I left the shop with it.

Its not as good as I thought though. It runs as a much higher temp than the George Foreman so even the slightest bit of fat quickly gives off smoke and the top level of it is so heavy that it squeezes my toasted sandwiches causing cheese oozing and burning.

Avoid.

Indeed especially with a bit of Nutella or the choc spread of your choice.

Sweet chiliu sauce and brie is also excellent, actually pretty much anything goes in a toastie(no lettuce or coleslaw though, yuk).

I use a George Foreman for toasties since my old maker died after the flex got toasted with the sandwich.

George Foreman isn't bad but I don't butter the outside of the bread like you would in a regular toaster.

Always add mustard afterwards. Is it nicer added beforehand?

Usually have
- Ham
- Cheddar red
- Onion
- Tomato

Tomatoes can be lethally hot though.

Aubergine, pesto and goats cheese make a lovely toasty. .|..|

Dunno if there's much difference but its way handier to add beforehand. I always do.

easy-singles and mustard are all you need.

Why overcomplicate things?

Notice the gender divide goys and gals?

You can get an egg, scramble it up in a cup, and carefully spread it about in the hollow bits, loads of pepper, bitta cheese and salt, and put butter under the bread and on top.

Give it a good cook though. Runny egg == not nice.

Made a rasher and egg one a few weeks ago... worked amazingly well.
