Savoury Cheese - Traditional British Sandwich Filler

chef #326374's Note:

This is a gorgeous, mellow sandwich filler I have discovered in Britain and got absolutely hooked on! It's a very savoury and cheesy filling with a lovely melt-in-the-mouth texture which makes it the ultimate comfort food. Attention - some people my find this quite smelly, but it's worth it!

• Total Time: 10 mins
• Prep Time: 10 mins
• Cook Time: 0 mins

Ingredients:

Servings: 4

• 50 g grated cheddar cheese
• 50 g grated red leicester cheese
• 50 g grated mozzarella cheese
• mayonnaise
• spring onion, finely diced
• onion, finely diced
• salt & pepper

Directions:

1. mix the cheeses in a bowl.
2. add mayonnaise to desired creamyness (don`t be too skimpy, though!).
3. Add pepper and salt, finely diced spring onion and finely diced onion in quantities that suit you.
4. TIPS:
5. You may omit the Red Leicester and Mozzarella Cheese and use only Cheddar or similarly strong cheese.
6. This tastes best if made the day before and not served straight from the fridge.
7. Can be used as filler for sandwiches and baked potato (traditional), but is also gorgeous as a dip for vegetable crudities.

My gosh! This was amazing! I recently returned from a trip to England where, nearly every day, my lunch consisted of a baguette with the most delicious filler ever. When I got back to the US I was dying to have it again. I looked on this site, and was so amazed when I found your recipe. It's exactly the filler I had in England! It tasted fabulous. Thank you so much for putting this up!!! :D
