Step-by-Step Instructions
01
In a small bowl, mix the grated cheddar, Emmental (or mozzarella), and sliced spring onions until well combined.
02
Spread a thin layer of mayonnaise over one side of each sourdough slice; this side will face outward to create a perfectly golden, crispy crust.
03
Place two slices of bread mayo-side down on a clean surface. Pile the cheese mixture onto the plain side, then top with the drained kimchi.
04
Close the sandwiches with the remaining bread slices, ensuring the mayo-coated sides are on the outside. Sprinkle with sesame seeds if desired.
05
Heat a large frying pan or skillet over medium heat. Arrange the toasties in the pan and weigh them down with another heavy pan to press them.
06
Cook for 4–6 minutes, then flip and cook for another 5 minutes until the bread is toasted and the cheese is completely melted. Slice and serve hot.
