How to make a grilled cheese and pickle sandwich


A cheese and pickle sandwich (sometimes known as a cheese and chutney sandwich or a ploughman's sandwich from its resemblance to a ploughman's lunch) is a British sandwich. As its name suggests, it consists of slices of cheese (typically Cheddar) and pickle (a sweet, vinegary chutney, the most popular brand being Branston), sandwiched between two slices of bread. The inside slices of the bread may be spread with butter or margarine, and the sandwich may include salad items such as lettuce and rocket.

Sean Poulter of the Daily Mail described the sandwich as "quintessentially British". A recent informal poll by the supermarket chain ALDI saw it voted as Britain's favourite sandwich. Sean Poulter of the Daily Mail described Branston pickle as a "key ingredient" of the sandwich. Celebrity chefs such as Jamie Oliver, Anthony Worrall Thompson and the Hairy Bikers have produced their own recipes for the sandwich. Oliver attributes the sandwich's popularity to the way in which "the crunch of the pickle perfectly compliments the smooth softness of the cheese, and the vinegariness of the pickle balances the richness of the cheese."
