  1. Step 1:

    Step 1.

    How to make an egg and cheese sandwich in a frying pan? Prepare the products. Any bread will do — white, rye, wholegrain flour. It is better if it is square in shape. I have a regular toast. Any cheese for this dish is suitable — hard, semi-hard, soft, like mozzarella. The main thing is that it is delicious, high-quality, without milk fat substitutes and melts well. Take the greens according to your taste, I have parsley.

  2. Step 2:

    Step 2.

    Wash the tomato, dry it and cut it into thin circles. Cherry tomatoes, if you use them, cut in half.

  3. Step 3:

    Step 3.

    Wash the greens well and dry them so that excess moisture does not spoil the dish. Tear off the leaves and finely chop them with a sharp knife.

  4. Step 4:

    Step 4.

    Step 6.

    Wait until the egg grabs and browns from the bottom. With a quick, neat movement, turn the pancake over to the other side. It can tear, it's not scary, it won't affect the taste in any way. Put the tomato slices on the bread, sprinkle with herbs. Put pieces of cheese on the tomato. Cover the pan with a lid, turn down the heat and wait for the cheese to melt.

  7. Step 7:

    Step 7.

    When this happens, fold the sandwich filling inside. The pieces of scrambled eggs that will protrude beyond the edges of the bread, you can either tuck inside the sandwich as well or cut off, as I did.

  8. Step 8:

    Step 8.

    Immediately serve the sandwich to the table, you can cut it diagonally. Bon appetit!

You can also put any sausage products in the filling, this option will turn out even more satisfying.

Be sure to wash the eggs before use, as even the seemingly clean shell may contain harmful bacteria. It is best to use food detergents and a brush.

Choose juicy tomatoes, but dense. Soft fruits do not keep their shape well, in the process of slicing and cooking they will spread into a shapeless mass and spoil the appearance of the dish.

Important! An incorrectly selected frying pan can ruin even the best recipe. All the details on how to choose the perfect frying pan for different dishes read here .
