How to make the very best grilled cheese sandwich
- Mix the ketchup with the gochujang in a bowl and set aside.
- Spread a thin layer of butter on one side of each slice of bread.
- Heat a frying pan over low heat and place the slices in it, buttered side down, once the pan is hot. This allows the bread to start getting crispy; it takes a little longer than melting the cheese.
- While frying, cover 1 slice with slices of cheese, stopping just short of the edge. Place the drained kimchi on top. Place the other slice of bread on top of the kimchi, cooked side up, and fry the grilled cheese sandwich until golden brown.
- Turn regularly until the cheese has melted and the outside is golden brown. If the cheese drips out of one of the sides, you can fry the sandwich on its side for a moment so the cheese becomes crispy.
- If you’re a butter lover (like us), brush the sandwich with a little more butter afterward. Eat with the gochujang ketchup.
