For this recipe, we took a classic grilled (read: fried) sandwich and made it even better by stuffing it with soft cheese, chillies and garlic. You won't go back to a normal grilled cheese once you've tasted this.

Grilled cheese is one of the most comforting, healing dishes out there and only uses a few ingredients. The same applies for eggy bread, so it made sense to Dan Doherty to combine them. Eat for breakfast, lunch or dinner, though maybe not every day.

The Cubano sandwich This is an iconic food-truck sandwich in the US using Cuban mojo pork. It take a while to make but it's a great casual entertaining idea.
