Cheese toasts in a frying pan

4 servings

15 minutes

Cheese toasts in a skillet are a simple yet delightful recipe that has won the hearts of lovers of crispy, hot, and gooey cheese. This dish is inspired by French croque-madame and croque-monsieur but has taken on a more democratic and accessible character. Toasts fried in butter and vegetable oil become golden and crispy, while the melted cheese inside creates an appetizing stretchy texture. They can be served as a standalone dish for breakfast, a snack, or as the perfect complement to soups. The simplicity of preparation makes them an excellent option for a quick yet hearty treat. They are especially good with tomato sauce, fresh vegetables, or aromatic spices.
