Ingredients
4 Ancient Grains with Red Fife | |
3 Tbsp. of Salted butter | |
1 Small Sweet Onion | |
1 Tbsp. Onion soup mix | |
1 Tbsp. Chopped Thyme | |
4 Tsp. of Dijon Mustard | |
1/2 Cup. of grated Cheddar Cheese | |
1/2 Cup. of grated Gruyere Cheese | |
1/4 Cup. of Crispy Onions |
How to make
1. | Melt 1 tbsp. of butter in a large frying pan over medium heat. |
2. | Add the onion and cook until the slices start to wilt and turn translucent, about 3 minutes. Then add the onion soup mix, thyme and 2 tbsp. of water. |
3. | Turn the heat to low, then continue to cook, stirring and adding more water one tablespoon at a time if the mixture begins to dry out or until the onions are soft and golden brown about 5-10 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and set aside. |
4. | In another frying pan melt 1 tbsp. of butter over medium heat. |
5. | Spread 1 tsp. of mustard onto each slice of bread. |
6. | Divide the Cheddar, Gruyere, caramelized onions and crispy onions between 2 slices of bread on top of the mustard. |
7. | Top each with another slice of bread, mustard-side in, and lay the sandwiches in the pan. |
8. | Allow the sandwiches to cook, pressing down on the top of them to ensure they are getting brown and crispy. |
9. | Add the last tbsp. of butter into the pan and flip the sandwiches, cooking until the cheese is melted. |
10. | Cut in half and serve. |
