My Favourite Crunchy Tomato Sandwich
A simple and quick fix sandwich with fresh sliced tomatoes, butter or cheese sprea and, herbs all topped off with some crisp potato wafers.
Ingredients
- 1 large ripe firm tomato
- 2 thick slice of crusty country styleread (or any of your choice)
- 2 tbsp butter/ plain white cheese spread (optional)
- 1/2 tsp mixed dried herbs (I like Herbs de Provence)
- to taste Salt
- to taste crushed black pepper
- handful potato crisps (plain salted/ or flavoured)
Instructions
- Spread the butter or cheese spread as thick as you like it (I'd say less is more) on one side of each slice of bread. Slice the tomatoes into not too thin slices and layer them (two or 3 layers) on one slice of buttered bread. Sprinkle the herbs, the pepper and salt over this.
- Be judicious with the salt if using potato crisps as they are salty too. Top with the potato crisps and cover with the other slice of buttered bread. Press down lightly.
- Cut into half to make the sandwich more manageable to eat. Bite into the deliciousness that is is your sandwich. Keep a napkin handy. Enjoy! This recipe serves one so go ahead and double or triple it to make as many sandwiches as you need.
