Grilled Mozzarella Sandwiches


These sandwiches were delicious. I cut the proportions of the milk/egg in half since my sandwiches were smaller. I left the kids with just the cheese but I added a fresh basil leaf from my garden to my sandwich. That was an awesome
addition!!

Ingredients:
  • 1 pound fresh buffalo mozzarella, cut into 4 equal pieces about 3-inches by 4-inches
  • 8 1/2-inch thick firm white sandwich bread
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1 teaspoon fresh thyme, leaves
  • 1 teaspoon coarse salt
  • A grating of nutmeg
  • 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter

Instructions:
  1. Place the mozzarella on 4 slices of the bread. Cover with the remaining slices to form sandwiches.
  2. Trim the crusts off to make perfect 4-inch squares.
  3. In a wide shallow bowl, whisk the eggs.
  4. Add the cream, thyme leaves, salt, and nutmeg. Whisk until well blended.
  5. In a 10 to 12-inch nonstick saute pan, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat until smoking.
  6. Add 1 tablespoon of the butter and cook until the sizzling subsides.
  7. Dip 2 of the sandwiches into the egg mixture, turning to coat, place in the pan, and cook until golden brown on the first side, about 2 minutes.
  8. Flip over and brown on the other side.
  9. Transfer the sandwiches to individual plates and repeat the process with the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 tablespoon butter, and 2 sandwiches.
  10. Cut in half, and serve immediately.
