- For the grilled cheese, take your Tiger Bloomer slices and spread one slice from each sandwich with 1 tbsp. of caramelised red onion mixture.
- Grate the three cheeses into a bowl and mix together.
- Divide the cheese mixture in two and pile on top of the caramelised onion. Top with another slice of Tiger.
- Grease a heavy bottomed pan with a little rapeseed oil and when the oil is hot, place the sandwiches into the pan and press down with a spatula.
- On a medium heat, cook for 3-4 minutes until golden and then flip over and cook for another 3-4 minutes.
- Cut the sandwich in half and enjoy the cheesy goodness!
