Instructions
Prepare the Bread
Spread the Dijon mustard evenly on one side of each slice of bread.
Pro tip: For a milder flavour, use half the amount of mustard.
Assemble the Sandwich
Layer the prosciutto, brie, and arugula on two slices of bread, mustard side up.
Pro tip: Ensure the cheese covers the meat and greens for even melting.
Top the Sandwich
Place the remaining bread slices on top, mustard side down.
Butter the Bread
Spread softened butter on the outside of each sandwich.
Pro tip: This will help create a crispy, golden crust when grilled.
Grill the Sandwich
Preheat a skillet over medium heat. Grill the sandwiches for about 2-3 minutes per side until the bread is golden and the brie is melted.
Pro tip: Press gently with a spatula for even browning.
Serve
Cut the sandwiches in half and serve immediately.
Pro tip: Use a serrated knife for clean cuts.
Tips & Tricks
- Use fresh, high-quality ingredients for the best flavour.
- Ensure your bread is crusty to support the rich filling.
- Adjust the amount of mustard based on your spice preference.
- Toast the sandwich until the brie is just melted for optimal texture.
