Ingredients
  

For the Sandwich
  • 2 strips maple smoked bacon or regular
  • 2 slices multigrain bread
  • 2 tbsp mayonnaise
  • 2 tbsp blueberry jam
  • 1/2 cup cheddar & mozzarella cheese shredded (50g)
  • 1/2 green jalapeno thinly sliced
  • 2 tbsp salted butter or margarine

Equipment

  • frying pan
  • Spatula

Method
 

  1. Fry the bacon over a medium-high heat and set aside.
  2. Spread mayonnaise on each slice of bread, then top with the blueberry jam.
  3. On one slice of bread, sprinkle half of the cheese, then add the bacon and jalapeno slices. Sprinkle the remaining cheese on top.
  4. Place the other slice of bread on top, jam-side down, and press lightly.
  5. Heat a frying pan over medium heat. Butter the top of the sandwich and place it in the hot frying pan, butter-side down. Once in the pan, butter the top side of the sandwich.
  6. Fry the sandwich for a couple of minutes until the bread starts to get toasty. Using a spatula, gently flip it over.
  7. Press down gently and fry for a couple of minutes. Then, flip every 30 seconds or so, pressing down, until the bread is golden brown and the cheese has melted.
