Instructions

  1. Cut the rolls in half lengthwise and open them up slightly.
  2. Spread the inside of each half with the softened butter.
  3. Grate the cheese and spread it generously over the buttered side.
  4. Slice the tomatoes thinly, season with salt and pepper, then arrange them on the cheese.
  5. Put the bread in the oven preheated to 200 °C for 5 minutes, until the cheese melts and starts to turn golden.
  6. Serve right away, while the cheese is still stringy.

Variations and tips

Grilled version. Toast the bread in a pan with a lid instead of the oven, for a nicely browned crust.
