Christmas cheese toastie

Method

1. Put a frying pan over a low-medium heat. Butter each bread slice on one side only
2. On one (buttered side) slice of bread, lay half the cheddar, then half the tunworth. Dot with half the onion marmalade and half the gherkins/cornichons. Drizzle with just a little truffle oil (if using) and evenly top with the coppa slices.
3. Layer the rest of the ingredients, then sandwich firmly with the second slice of bread (buttered-side down).
4. Drizzle half the olive oil into the hot pan with a small pinch of salt. Add the sandwich and carefully slide it around to soak up the oil and salt.
5. Put a clean, heavy pan on top of the sandwich to weigh it down and cook for about 5 minutes, making sure the bread doesn’t burn. Turn over to brown the other side, adding more olive oil and salt, and cook (weighted again) for 5 minutes more.
6. Take out of the pan and cut in half diagonally (it tastes better that way – who knows why!). The bread should be golden and crunchy, and the cheese melted and oozing. If not, return to the pan or, dare I say it, pop into the microwave for 10 seconds.
