Critical Success Points

  • Grate the cheese very finely for quick melting.
  • Spread butter only on the outer faces of the bread.
  • Cook the sandwich covered to melt the cheese without burning the bread.
  • Cook the egg leaving the yolk runny.

Safety Warnings

  • Handle the hot pan carefully to avoid burns.
  • Olive oil can splatter when cooking the egg; use a lid or a guard.
