Egg and Cheese Sandwich

There are several ways in which to put eggs and cheese together to make a sandwich but my favourite way is old fashioned by today’s standards, and harkens back to my childhood. Simply put, it is a mash up of boiled eggs, grated cheese, mustard, hot pepper sauce, a little salt and just enough mayonnaise to make it a thick paste.

Spread evenly and thickly across a slice of white bread and then topped with another slice of bread, gently pressed together and cut diagonally, it is the perfect sandwich. With every bite your teeth sinks into the soft bread, with its savoury cheesy centre. It is good as an afternoon snack and goes down well with tea.
