English Muffins, Fried Egg and Grilled Cheese

Ingredients

• 2 large Egg
• 1 tbsp Ghee (Can be substituted with vegetable oil)
• 0.25 tsp Salt (Adjust to taste)
• 0.25 tsp Turmeric Powder
• 0.25 tsp Red Chili Powder (Adjust to your spice preference)
• 0.25 tsp Black Pepper Powder (Freshly ground is best)
• 1 tbsp Coriander Leaves (Finely chopped, for garnish)

Instructions

1. 1

   Heat ghee in a non-stick skillet or frying pan over medium-low heat. Swirl the pan to ensure the ghee coats the bottom evenly.

2. 2

   Gently crack the eggs into the hot pan, leaving space between them. Be careful not to break the yolks.

3. 3

   Immediately sprinkle the salt, turmeric powder, red chili powder, and black pepper powder evenly over the eggs.

4. 4

   Cook for 2-3 minutes. For a runny yolk (sunny-side up), cook until the whites are completely set. For a jammy yolk, cover the pan with a lid for the last minute of cooking to steam the top. For a fully cooked yolk, gently flip the egg and cook for another 30-60 seconds.

5. 5

   Using a spatula, carefully slide the fried eggs onto a serving plate. Garnish with freshly chopped coriander leaves and serve immediately.

Ingredients

• 2 slices Sourdough Bread (Thick-cut slices work best)
• 56 g Sharp Cheddar Cheese (About 2 thick slices or 1/2 cup shredded)
• 1 tbsp Unsalted Butter (Softened to room temperature)
• 1 pinch Salt (Optional, for the crust)

Instructions

1. 1

   Lay the 2 slices of bread on a cutting board. Spread the softened butter evenly across one side of each slice, reaching all the way to the edges.

2. 2

   Flip one slice of bread so the buttered side is facing down. Layer the cheddar cheese evenly over the unbuttered side. Place the second slice of bread on top, with its buttered side facing up.

3. 3

   Place a non-stick skillet or cast-iron pan over medium-low heat. Allow it to preheat for 1-2 minutes. Do not use high heat.

4. 4

   Carefully place the assembled sandwich into the hot skillet. Cook for 3-4 minutes, until the bottom slice of bread is a deep golden brown and crispy. Press down gently with a spatula occasionally for even cooking.

5. 5

   Using the spatula, carefully flip the sandwich. Cook for another 3-4 minutes on the second side until it is also golden brown and the cheese is fully melted and beginning to ooze.

6. 6

   Remove the sandwich from the skillet and place it on the cutting board. Let it rest for one minute before slicing. This allows the cheese to set slightly and prevents it from running out. Slice diagonally and serve immediately.
