Instructions

Step 1

Start by taking a slice of bread and topping it with some mozzarella cheese. Place another slice of bread on top, then use a round cutter to cut a hole in the center. Set aside the cut-out piece.

Step 2

Take a third slice of bread and spread cheddar cheese all over it. Then, place this slice underneath the two stacked slices from step one.

Step 3

Fill the hole in the top sandwich with chicken ham, being careful not to tear it. Sprinkle some shredded mozzarella cheese over the ham.

Step 4

Crack an egg right into the hole, then season with a little salt and pepper. If you like, add some extra cheese around the edges.

Step 5

You can also spread some cheese on the cut-out bread piece to bake alongside.

Step 6

Bake everything at 180°C (350°F) for about 10 minutes, until the outside is golden and crispy but the inside stays soft.

Step 7

Serve warm and enjoy your melty, cheesy sandwich!
