Cheese toasties are the ultimate comfort food. Yeah, cheese sandwiches are great, and cheese on toast is even better. But the ultimate way of serving bread and cheese is as a cheese toastie. We just love how melty, oozy, gooey and crispy they are.

Anyone else drooling right now?

So, what if we were to tell you we’ve just discovered a new way of taking your cheese toasties up a gear by making them even crispier and more delicious?

Thanks to TikTok’s @toastieking (and surely he knows what he’s talking about, right?), we now know the secret to getting an even crispier cheese toastie is by adding a layer of cheese to your toastie machine. Why? Well this creates the perfect crispy toast edge and makes sure your bread doesn’t end up burning.

So, yeah, sprinkle any grated cheese you fancy onto your toastie-making machine, then pop one slice of bread on top, before adding your filling, which may just be more grated cheese, or maybe a ham and cheese toastie is your jam? Then the second slice of bread goes on top. Shut the lid and away you go!

And what you’re left with is a cheese toastie that’s gooey in the middle and crispy on the outside.

It's official: we’re having cheese toasties for breakfast, lunch and dinner from now on!
