Toaster Sandwich Recipe: Banana, chocolate, and a little butter

Our recipe uses a popular Citron EL-4768 sandwich toaster, or as we call it in our circle – a cool sandwich maker. The body is made of metal and plastic. The power cord is 65 cm long this is due to the relatively high current consumption of the household appliance – 750 watts for a 230-volt household electrical system . On the case has two lights – green and red, both lights are lit when you turn on the power.

You don’t need a lot of ingredients to make one hot sandwich.

We will need

Recipe 1

2 slices of molded square “grain” bread like Hercules

Half a banana, cut with a knife into 0.8 thick slices…1 cm.

2-3 slices 20g of Alpen Gold chocolate you can use any to your liking

Recipe 2

4 slices of shaped square “grain” bread “Hercules”

2 slices of Roshiskis cheese

2 slices of Holiday ham

These ingredients are calculated for 2 servings of delicious sandwiches.

How to make?

For the sake of flavor, we cut the slices of bread into 0.8 mm thick slices and coated one side with 82% fat butter.

Next, we put one slice of bread in the shape of a square and butter side down in the work space of the sandwich toaster.

We put banana slices and chocolate slices on top of the bread and cover them with another bread butter side up . Buttering in this case has two important effects: firstly, the sandwiches, when ready, develop a very attractive visually and deliciously – gastronomically – golden crust in practice, it is noticed that it forms with any composition of the bread .

Secondly, the grease prevents the walls of the sandwich-toster chamber from sticking to the sandwiches and – consequently – from sticking to the finished product.

Let’s go our next step. We put the lid down, secured it with the latch, and plugged the sandwich toaster into the 220V mains for 4 minutes.

After 3 minutes the heating indicator light goes out – the usual reason to check if the pre-stuffed food is ready. But… Not this time.

Indicator light turns on and off as the sandwich toaster chamber heats to desired temperature.

Then unplug the power cord, because the Citron EL-4768 sandwich toaster has no on/off button. This way, the sandwiches will “toast” inside the heating chamber for the last minute.

Then carefully, so as not to burn your fingers, tear off the lid while cooking sandwiches between the forms of the sandwich toaster steam is formed and remove the finished sandwiches with a wooden spatula.

We put them on a wide plate and serve them on the table, covered with a napkin.

Product is ready. The first time my daughter who loves bananas, chocolate, and coconut said, “yum!. Perhaps the recipe will appeal to other kitchens as well.

When all is eaten

After using the appliance we wipe the inside surfaces of its cooking chamber first with a damp cloth and then with a dry one. This is to prevent crumbs from collecting inside, which could cause them to burn the next time you use them.

The Citron EL-4768 sandwich toaster can be operated without a process break. It’s very handy when you have a group of guests over. You just need to get a knack for it and be careful not to burn yourself on the heated surfaces. We do not touch them, but open the appliance using its handles on either side of the locking latch .

To put a new batch of sandwiches in the oven until such a useful appliance cools down, it’s convenient to use a spatula or wooden tweezers.
