     Garlic Bread Mozzarella Grilled Cheese

 
Ingredients
 
                 
1 lb fresh buffalo mozzarella, cut into 4 equal pieces, 3 in by 3in
8 1/2 inch thick firm white sandwhich bread
2 large eggs
1/2 cup heavy cream
1 tsp fresh thyme
1 tsp coarse salt
a grating of nutmeg
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
2 tbsp unsalted butter
   
                 
                 
                 
                 

 
Instructions
 
 
Place the mozzarella on 4 slices of the bread. Cover with the remaining slices to form sandwiches. Trim the crusts off to make perfect 4-inch squares.
 
 
In a wide shallow bowl, whisk the eggs. Add the cream, thyme leaves, salt, and nutmeg. Whisk until well blended.
 
 
In a 10 to 12-inch nonstick saute pan, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat until smoking. Add 1 tablespoon of the butter and cook until the sizzling subsides. Dip 2 of the sandwiches into the egg mixture, turning to coat, place in the pan, and cook until golden brown on the first side, about 2 minutes. Flip over and brown on the other side. Transfer the sandwiches to individual plates and repeat the process with the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 tablespoon butter, and 2 sandwiches. Cut in half, and serve immediately.
