Stanley Tucci's Favourite Sandwich
Stanley Tucci's favourite sandwich is a wonderful pesto, mozzarella, prosciutto sandwich - delicious and so simple, it hardly needs a recipe but let me tell you how to make it
Servings: 1 sandwich
Ingredients
- 2 slices good sourdough/crusty bread
- 1/2 ball of fresh mozzarella
- 1 handful of grated cheddar/mozzarella/gruyere use what you have - optional but using both gives you a good melty middle and good flavour
- 2 tbsp fresh basil pesto
- 3 slices of prosciutto
- 4-5 basil leaves to top
- Butter
Instructions
- Heat a pan over low-medium heat. Take the first slice of bread and spread butter on one side. Flip the slice over (so the butter side is down) and top with grated mozzarella, prosciutto, fresh sliced mozzarella, basil leaves and pesto.
- Sprinkle with salt and pepper and top with the other slice of bread. Butter the top side of the bread.
- Place in the pan and fry for 5 minutes a side, to get a super crunchy outside and melty inside.
