This ultimate grilled cheese sandwich takes a humble lunchtime staple and transforms it into a gourmet vegetarian-friendly treat. By using thick slices of crusty sourdough and a combination of creamy mozzarella or young Asiago, you achieve the perfect balance of a golden, crunchy exterior and a beautifully melted centre. The addition of fresh basil and a hint of dried chilli adds a sophisticated depth of flavour that pairs perfectly with the salty notes of the prosciutto.
Ideal for a comforting weekend brunch or a quick but luxurious midweek dinner, this toasted sandwich is finished with thick slices of juicy heirloom tomatoes added at the very last moment. This technique preserves the freshness of the garnish while ensuring the bread stays perfectly crisp. For a complete meal, serve alongside a light green salad or a bowl of warming tomato soup.

Ingredients for Ultimate Grilled Cheese Sandwich
Butter
4 slices country white sourdough bread, cut on deep diagonal into 1/3-inch-thick slices (each about 7x3 1/2 inches)
4 thin slices prosciutto
8 large fresh basil leaves
8 (1/4-inch-thick) slices young Asiago cheese or drained fresh mozzarella cheese
1/4 teaspoons dried crushed red pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil
6 (1/3-inch-thick) slices heirloom tomato (from about 1 large)
How to make Ultimate Grilled Cheese Sandwich
Preheat oven to 204°C. Lightly butter 1 side of each bread slice. Place 2 bread slices, buttered side down, on work surface. Top each with 2 prosciutto slices, then 4 basil leaves, then 4 cheese slices. Sprinkle with salt and crushed red pepper. Top with remaining 2 bread slices, buttered side up. Heat olive oil in heavy large ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Add sandwiches to skillet and cook until golden on bottom, about 4 minutes. Turn sandwiches over; transfer skillet to oven and bake until golden and cheese melts, about 5 minutes. Remove from oven. Carefully lift off top bread slices from sandwiches and insert 3 tomato slices into each, then cover with bread tops and serve.
