Preparation
Step 1
Any bread will work - white, rye, or whole-grain. Square-shaped is best. I use regular toast bread. Any cheese is suitable - hard, semi-hard, or soft like mozzarella. The main thing is that it’s tasty, real (without substitutes), and melts well. Use any herbs you like; I use parsley.
Step 2
Wash and dry the tomato, then slice into thin rounds. If using cherry tomatoes, cut them in half.
Step 3
Wash and dry the herbs thoroughly to avoid extra moisture. Pluck the leaves and finely chop them with a sharp knife.
Step 4
Wash and dry the eggs, then crack them into a bowl. Salt to taste. Beat well with a fork or whisk until smooth.
Step 5
Heat a skillet over medium heat. Add a little vegetable oil and warm it. Pour in the eggs, then place two slices of bread on top.
Step 6
Wait until the egg sets and browns underneath. Quickly and carefully flip the omelet to the other side. It may tear, but that won’t affect the taste. Place tomato slices on the bread, sprinkle with herbs, then top with cheese slices. Cover with a lid, reduce the heat, and let the cheese melt.
Step 7
Once the cheese is melted, fold the sandwich so the filling is inside. Any fried egg edges sticking out can be tucked inside or trimmed, as I did.
Step 8
Your egg and cheese sandwich is ready. Serve hot.
