The Bob Mortimer Fried Cheese Sandwich

[@karatefella]

I love Gone Fishing. I'm not into fishing but I love their friendship and banter ! Very funny, and it has had a couple of emotional moments in its' time 🙂

[@euansmith3699]

Bob Mortimer is a national treasure; and a fried cheese sarnie sounds cracking.

[@chrisgillanders111]

Bob's 'heart healthy' diet!! 🤣 It's a great programme.

[@Rowan-d2y]

My favourite program Gone Fishing and Bob is one of my top favourite people. Paul Whitehouse is brilliant too, they are great together, pure joy. It’s my happy time with them, they do the soul good. “ it tastes just like fried bread!, I know I fried it”. Had me chuckling. Cheers, cheese it’s the future! Bob rules! 😊

Great in the airfrier, mayo on outside of bread. Cheese inside and a toothpick or 2 to hold the slices together. My Sis loves this when she visits

[@midnightmosesuk]

Bob Mortimer, what a great bloke. He's the type of guy you'd just love to have as a friend. Can you imagine going to the pub with him? It'd be a laugh a minute. Never heard of using mayonnaise like that before, I've made something similar using eggs though. Maybe, if you tried frying both slices on one side first, put cheese on the fried part, made the sandwich with the fried bit inside and then fried the outer side, you'd get even more crunch.

[@user-oy2ig2jf5u]

😆😆😆😭 1:50 your reaction to the noise from the mayonnaise bottle is priceless. it absolutely cracked me up. i kept on replaying that part and just couldn't stop laughing. sorry to say, but, you have to laugh, when you think of a curry night, and the morning after, you may hear that sound again...true? thats why i laughed 😁 Love, love, your channel.

[@stuross8190]

Bob is among the best food writers in the Country, maybe the World. His knowledge is obvious. A man who can describe the experience of a Seabrooks crisp in both a flavour and a cultural context is onto something. A true foodie of our time.

[@Essydyk]

My mother used to make us something similar when we were kids. It was called Cheese Dreams. Basically 2 slices of white bread soaked in a beaten egg mix with salt and pepper to season - whacked together with cheese in the middle and then fried. At least 1 of your 5 a day.

[@harleymac6308]

Oh, that's my tea sorted Gareth, thank you. It looked very tasty with a lovely crunch to it. Loved this 😊👍

[@ianm1470]

That looked delicious my mouth is watering watching you. I’m certainly going to try that cheers mate 👍🏻🤤👍🏻

[@darland3821]

I do a variant of this but dipped in beaten egg before frying, it's perfection.

[@Tigermoto]

I've done this way on and off for a few years. Your way however i need to try, that sounds awesome.

[@roybatty4687]

That's well known though.

[@GerryLewis-qb4pv]

I've done a similar thing for breakfast. It's like a ' French toast ' cheese Sarnie. My dad back in the 50's would dip bread into beaten egg before frying. Very tasty as I remember.

[@paulcole4902]

Originally called gypsy toast,but now alot of people call it eggy bread,it is tasty 😋 with tomato ketchup spread all over it aswell 😋 👍

[@scottneil1187]

Same, that's how my dad and my gran did it too, love me some eggy bread!.

It's in my planner..... I watch it every week, I find it relaxing and entertaining!! I have always used mayonnaise on my toasties in the air fryer.... I think you may be swayed to cooking your toasties like this in the future!! I think it might be the eggs in the mayonnaise that give it the flavour xx

[@joelbenedickter1484]

Great vlog Gaz!, when I see reduced sandwiches in supermarkets or petrol stations I get them and do them in the air fryer!, last night we had Cheese and onion with mayonnaise already in them, spray oil on the top, turn over and do them in same, 7 minutes on 200 degrees, turn over halfway and they’re amazing!. Try it out!.

[@gtree7047]

Looks good! If you grade up some cheese and sprinkle it directly in the pan under the bread, you get this crusty melted cheese on the outside too.

[@ianday1470]

Try the same thing, but in the airfryer. Amazing cheese on Toast. Make your sandwich the same way (with Mayo) 4mins one side and 3mins the other.

Chee-a seeds, spelt Chia. I always did pan toasties when i went on holiday abroad. Used butter on the outside. I woo'd the wife with pan toasties....I should have given her a pot noodle, I'd be a millionaire now! I'll be trying one with mayo soon. I cant imagine Bobs heart surgeon being happy with that 😂😂 Cheers mate, great video.

[@BaldFoodieGuy]

That's it thank you

[@martinjb55]

Another great post, Gareth. I use mayonnaise a lot because I can't stand the texture of butter on cold things. I usually add a spoonful to my sc rambled eggs before I cook them, it makes them lovely and creamy. I also use it on the outside of the bread when I do a toastie. I might just have added some branston or Worcestershire sauce to the cheese. All the best.👍

[@BaldFoodieGuy]

Cheers Martin 👍

[@featheredfriend1711]

How can you not like the texture of butter?

[@martinjb55]

@featheredfriend1711 I had butter on things until I was eight, but I had a sandwich one day and was physically sick, and I didn't have anything with butter on it for years, I then found I could eat it melted on toast, baked potatoes etc. I had the same problem with vegetable spreads. I'm used to it now after sixty one years.

[@DavidG-wd9fz]

Extra tip when making those - fry all sides. So butter or mayonaise (or whatever) all sides - put both slices in the pan. When browned flip them both - add your cheese. Put the other slice on top then brown the other sides, Cheese will melt during the process and frying 4 sides makes it mega crunchy, Oh and sandwiches MUST be sliced diagonally - that's why in the shops they are always in triangle packs !!

[@shanemckinnon5586]

One of my go to sandwiches for lunch is the cheese toastie done in the pan like you did, so I'm really keen to try this myself. Love mayonnaise on stuff . Sounds nice. Cheers mate. That cheese cutter was a beauty to. Very handy.

[@5714sqd]

We have always used mayonnaise on our toasted cheese sandwiches. My wife also makes the mayonnaise from scratch. If you have a food processor, you can do the same. Mayonnaise, without the chemicals tastes so much better than the store bought. And home made is much healthier. I like your choice of cheese, aged cheddar is much more flavoursome. Thanks for sharing as always.

[@ashpal-1]

hi gareth thanks for video i usually do similar in air fryer but i will certainly try this way looks really good have a great week gareth.............................wes

[@BaldFoodieGuy]

Thank you

[@paulmckearney4945]

It's a cheese toastie like you make in a toastie machine where you put the butter on the outside to stop it sticking.

[@jeepsthetimebandit]

Well, I have no cheese in but I've tried it on one slice of bread, fried with mayonnaise both sides, and a couple of spoonfuls of baked beans. Delicious!

[@Thrillhouse89]

I absolutely love Gone Fishing and Bob / Paul. Its because mayo has alot of eggs/oil in it so you are having eggy bread almost, its very nice to try this with brie and bacon, an old chef friend told me the mayo trick about 6 years now.

[@craigbraidwood6535]

This is similar to how i make cheese toastie without a cheese toasty machine except i use butter instead of mayo and i put the butter side down in pan, on left slice of bread - put square cheese on top of the white bread, then add grated cheese on top of the square cheese, and on the right slice of bread put square cheese on it, then flip over the right side onto the left side so you have the cheese in middle, then just flip it over now and then til outside of bread is browned enough to your taste, cheese melts like a toastie machine,, hope i explained it so you follow what am trying to say. ::)

its a Cheese Toastie not a Physics Exam...Good explanation though.

Variation on a theme. 1 part chopped onion, 3 parts grated cheese plus just enough mayonnaise to bind together. Season and add a dash of Worcestershire sauce. Use for cheese on toast. It is beautifully creamy.

[@philipclark1276]

Let's not over complicate things

[@johnlocke6506]

@@philipclark1276 You're right. Forget the Worcestershire sauce!!

[@grahamparsons3406]

Fried bread with cheese inside. A great invention that many people over their teens have tried. The mayo is basically oil, so it acts just like frying oil or butter.

[@ceebee2994]

None of the sandwiches sold in supermarkets have butter. They use mayonnaise.

[@toenhev17]

I've seen this on other KZbin channels, it's an American idea. The thing to remember is that you can't use light mayonnaise because it's made with water, it's the oil from the mayonnaise that cooks it so basically it is a fried bread sandwich. The yanks don't flip the first piece with the cheese on it they flip it once the second piece of bread is on!

Basically mayo is egg and olive oil! It’s great for cooking. It’s very good as a coating for chicken wings with the spices you like!

[@GerryLewis-qb4pv]

That looked really tasty. I'm going to experiment a bit. I'm going to use garlic mayo. I might even add a slice of ham or two and some mozzarella with some extra mature cheddar. Sometimes you can use your imagination and end up with great Sarnie. This was a great lesson in cooking. For me? A cheese sandwich has taken on a whole new level. Many years ago I would make the family a ' Welsh Rarebit ' for supper. Anyone who's had it knows how tasty it was. I would add my own spin on it, so I guess it was just a plain ' Rarebit '. I haven't made one for years. That might change soon thanks to this recipe, ( I'm certainly going to give it a go ). Thank you Gareth for showing something new and something easily done at home. 👍👍. I still love beans on fried bread rather than toast.

[@hilarykenny8058]

I don’t know if they’re still available but there used to be the sandwich toaster that did a similar job. I personally wonder if you could do a triple cooked version like they do for chips. As a suggestion maybe try some spicy cheese and see how it goes. You can never have too much cheese! Cheese is the ultimate comfort food.
