CHEESE SAVOURY SANDWICH FILLING

Steps:

• Begin by chopping the red pepper finely and leaving to drain on kitchen paper
• Next, finely dice salad onion
• Mix mayonnaise with paprika and dijon mustard
• Grate the cheddar cheese and Red Leicester cheese finely, then toss together in a bowl - use your hands, it's easy this way
• Add in the pepper & onion and mix again with your hands
• Finally, stir in the mayonnaise using a metal spoon
• Cover and chill until ready to use
• Cut the crusts from the bread
• Cut one of the slices of bread in half - we will only cut 1 sandwich from this slice
• Lay 5 of the full-sized slices out, along with one of the smaller pieces of bread
• Stir the filling briefly and spoon a generous amount onto each slice of laid out bread, spreading it out using a blunt knife
• Top each slice with another piece of bread of equal size
• Cut into slices - my bread allowed 3 sandwiches to be cut from each large piece of bread and just one from the smaller sandwich. In total, you should cut 16 small sandwiches
• Cover until ready to serve and consume as soon as possible (within the hour to avoid the bread drying out)
