Three Cheese and Mustard Sourdough Braaibroodjie

Serves: 4

Prep time: 20 min

Cook time: 10 min

Accessories: Half Moon Cast Iron Dual Side Griddle, Cast Iron Sauce Pot with Silicone Brush

Ingredients:

Sweet Mustard Sauce:

  • 4 large eggs whisked
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 4 tablespoons mustard powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup vinegar

Three Cheese Braaibroodjie:

  • 8 slices of good quality sourdough bread
  • Butter to spread
  • 200 gr grated mozzarella cheese
  • 200 gr sliced emmental cheese
  • 200 gr grated mature cheddar cheese

Method:

  1. Combine the ingredients for the sweet mustard sauce in a Cast Iron Sauce Pot.
  2. Place on medium heat and allow sauce to heat and thicken, while whisking.  This will take about 5 – 7 minutes.
  3. When the mustard sauce has thickened, set aside to cool slightly.
  4. Prepare your braaibroodtjies by spreading the outside with butter.
  5. Layer one slice with the three cheeses, and give the other slice a spread of sweet mustard sauce.  You can also add a teaspoon of chutney if you so wish.
  6. Close the braaibroodtjies (remember to have the butter on the outside).
  7. Braaibroodtjies are usually the last to go on the grill. Ensure your egg has reached a temperature of 200 degrees celsius.
  8. Place the half moon cast iron grid – with the smooth side facing up – on your grid with the egg set to direct cooking (convEGGtor removed).
  9. Place the braaibroodtjies on the flat grid and close the egg, allowing the bread to toast for about 2 minutes a side, or until the bread is nicely toasted and cheese melted.
  10. Perfect accompaniment to Reverse Sear Prime Rib Steak with spicy rub.
