[Closed] Cheese toasties

If you’re a rabbit, do not  eat two different types in one sitting.

You’ll likely die.

*sigh* Go on then....

Tell me Perchy, why might I die?

Keepin the classics alive innit. 😉

Rabbits, being herbivores and that, haven’t evolved to be able to digest fat or dairy products, obviously

Myxinmatoasties ( very old joke )

Oh dear.

pek (chopped pork) onion and mature cheddar........... delicious.

Recently bought myself a toastie maker to - although bread makes me a bit bloaty/sick so it's a balance between the awesomeness of eating toasties and the side-effects.

Cheese toasties are OK. ....but cheese on toast is the food of gods.

Corned beef, mature chedder and onion is where its at

@zippy - dash of Worcestershire?

There are also not all that conducive to weight loss, so please think of your STW Chub club compatriots while enthusing on the awesomeness of cheese on bread! 😉

Cheese toasties with my home made chilli jam in are a personal favourite, although one of the best i've tasted was two slices of bread with Cadburys Whole Nut bars in between!

I'm with Binners - but with the addition of lashings of Tabasco.

Got to agree with Binners ..my favourite by a mile ..

Binners, get thee a Cheese and haggis toasty, grants tinned haggis, looks like dog food but in reality is pure food whankin tackle.

Yep, in with Nobeer on the haggis.

Not so much wi’ the whankin.

MICROTOASTIE
If you're in a rush and virtually nothing to clean up.

Toast two pieces of malted bread.
Slice some mature Cheddar cheese.

Place the cheese on the toast, assemble the toastie. Add pickle, marmite or anything of your choice.

30 seconds in the microwave.

Proper Gurt Lush 🙂

Not so much wi’ the whankin

Was it you that broke both wrists?

Yeah, but they weren’t mine.

I love toasties but unfortunately we don't have an old style toastie maker that seals the edges. Bake in the day my favourite filling was left over curry (and cheese of course).
Kind of like a toastie: I'm now partial to quesadillas - cheese, avocado, sliced jalapenos.

Toastie maker? no need. Tiny smear of butter on the outside of said sandwich, and dry fry in the big cast iron skillet.

Cheese and marmite

You gits. I was all set on some soup and toast for lunch and now I want a cheese toastie. Bastards.

I love toasties but unfortunately we don’t have an old style toastie maker that seals the edges.

Me neither, ours has a flat/ridged plate, I assume for panini or some such nonsense. It works fine, occasionally there's a bit of leakage but it's non-stick so it's all good.

A toatie requires sealing round the edge. A george formanned thing is merely a toasted sandwich.

Tomato has no placein a toastie... To wet.

I've said thus before but i have acheived a runny egg toasty before.

We still have the old one we were bought as a wedding present in 1990. Gets used a couple of times a week usually after a bike ride. Will do eight slices at a time.

A toatie what?

Cheese, Ham with a teaspoon of beans to liven things up. Awesome.

Have you considered a soup toastie? Report back on how it goes.

Dunking cheese toasties in Heinz tomoto soup is surely the default lunch while suffering from Man-flu? That can't be just me?

I have to confess that I've never actually eaten haggis, so I think a cheese toastie with haggis sounds like the perfect introduction

Cheese& onion smeared in ketchup. Served with tea. Oh god , I’m dribbling as I type.

weighted pan on top, crusts resist the weight pressure better and do the sealing.

To blimmin' hot, too!

Jacob Rees Mogg probably.

Cheese on thick toast. Bubbling to golden brown. Habanero sauce on the side.

*Edit - now wants toastie with sauce inside. You filthy animals.

Make a dell in the middle and crack an egg in there (requires sealing type toastie maker).

Toastie maker? no need. Tiny smear of butter on the outside of said sandwich, and dry fry in the big cast iron skillet.

This, but instead of a mere smear on the outside - just shallow fry the bugger in a big wedge of butter, bonus points for a selection of different cheeses on the inside, your tastebuds will thank me even if your doctor won't.

I have to confess that I’ve never actually eaten haggis, so I think a cheese toastie with haggis sounds like the perfect introduction

As a toastie / baked potato filling - veggie haggis & extra mature cheddar is hard to beat, not as greasy as the proper stuff and it's the herbs & spices that give haggis most of the flavour, so unless you're truly devoted to the consumption of offal the veggie stuff might be a good place to start, it's a gateway drug though & sooner or later you'll be blazing drunk professing your unwavering adoration to a haggis supper at 3am somewhere in the rain.

Righty ho... I'm giving that a go for lunch tomorrow. Do I need to wash it down with a bottle of Bucky, then shout at buses?

The toastie, the baked tattie or the full haggis supper?

Righty ho… I’m giving that a go for lunch tomorrow. Do I need to wash it down with a bottle of Bucky, then shout at buses?

Entirely optional with the veggie haggis, though mandatory with the lung-based variant - does make the afternoon fly in though!

I'm starving now.

I think I need to try all 3, probably in that order

Working your way up to the 16” haggis munchie box?

I do actually have a bottle of Bucky here. God only knows where it came from. I bring it out when I'm trying to get rid of people

Do not, I repeat, DO NOT, drink it.

I’ve witnessed the devastation it can cause. In fact I’m in Airdrie right now.

Lost in the Triangle

It's fine if drunk ironically

It can stay in the back of the dusty cupboard with the Bacardi and other stuff that nobody can remember the provinence of (where do they come from?) and that nobody will ever drink. EVER!

I'll give the haggis toastie a go tomorrow though, definitely

Thinly sliced smoked sausage and your fave cheese on a toastie/toasted sandwich 🙂 🙂 lush !!!

Cheese toasties also allow me to shout
<alan Partridge voice> Hotter than the sun!
when I take the first bite

Bake in the day my favourite filling was left over curry (and cheese of course).

And they said social mobility was dead. 🙂

If you need to do one quickly, try using a toaster bag (or is it a toasta bag)

Two pieces of bread with cheese in the middle. In the bag, in the toaster, one longish toasting cycle and it's magic. So quick, so nice

All dipping sauces work - mayo, chilli, salad cream, ketchup

I thought croque monsieur and this crazy hard work version googled up

https://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/perfect-croque-monsieur

this is a bit easier

https://www.deliaonline.com/recipes/international/european/french/croque-monsieur

and then this

https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/wordofmouth/2012/jul/05/how-cook-perfect-croque-monsieur

Always good for rounding up the left overs from a roast, lamb or beef with some mustard and tomatoes, then pick the good old vintage chedder in there 🙂

After that left over chilli works a treat

@benp1 - dont forget to check you put the bag in the correct way up, runny cheese can escape from the most unlikely places!!

Anyone tried banana and mars bar?

My savoury go to, is Red Leicester and Ham.

Ah, a nice thread. There's no toastie machine in our house but as teenager I was known to experiment. Egg toasty, mince toasty, raisin toasty, beans toasty they were all good. The only failure I can recall was ice cream toasty. That was supposed to be served with fizzy milk but that nearly ended the soda stream.

Cheese and marmite FTW

pek (chopped pork) onion and mature cheddar……….. delicious.

Don't believe a word Ton says, It's Spam.

Anyway Ton, you said you'd been put off Spam for life & PEK's the same thing!

Cheese & Marmite

Almost perfect except youv'e missed out the smoked bacon....*dribbles*

If you need to do one quickly, try using a toaster bag

Genius things, toastie bags! It helps if you’ve got a toaster that can handle crumpets, a regular toaster hasn’t got the width to take a proper cheese sarnie in a bag.
This is reminding me that I haven’t had a proper cheese toastie for ages, that omission will have to be rectified sometime soon.
Just not tonight, supper is being prepared by the chef. 😁

Is there a go to toasty maker?
Ours died yesterday, but was rubbish anyway.

Vegan haggis? VEGAN haggis? WTF even ha that!? 😂

Tomato has no placein a toastie… To wet.

To blimmin’ hot, too!

Nothing is a worse ingredient to include than cucumber - napalm-like oral injuries follow shorty after 😲😲

Vegan haggis? VEGAN haggis? WTF

Don't knock it til you've tried it??
I have, tis most edible. Obvs. Haggis it ain't, but it's still nommy 🤗🤗

Potatoe bread, cheddar, mozzarella, pulled pork, caramelised onions, bit of jack daniels BBQ sauce, finely chopped pickled jalapenos.

Alternatively, sourdough raclette and cheddar mix and lots of chopped leek and onion.

You can get one of the latter from a little place in Borough market.....best cheese toastie I've ever had by a long long way. Can't touch it even with homemade versions.

Still doesn’t answer my question 😄

Thanks to reading this I've just had to have a cheese and marmite toastie for breakfast ffs.

What insanity is this? Why on earth would you even think of putting cucumber on a toastie?

Stilton.
The end.

If it aint on the done list, it's on the to-do list.

Some things, such as this, should be further down the to-do list than they are.

Cheese, Ham with a teaspoon of beans to liven things up. Awesome.

Beans change in a toastie. They change man.
I think they boil and the cell structure changes.
They just don't taste the same and they are hotter than
Mercury's arse.

Mature cheddar, tomato, salad cream and jalapenos. I think I just decided what I am having for tea later
