Chilli Cheese Toast

What if I told you a recipe that works well for any meal – breakfast, brunch, lunch or even dinner? My Chilli Cheese Toast recipe will leave you feeling warm, fulfilled and craving for more. An easy recipe that you could make for yourself with a warming bowl of soup, or even on its own. Or just the dish you’d want for breakfast or brunch. Believe me when I say, your friends will ask you for the recipe after they’ve tasted it.

These days Chilli Cheese Toast has regained its popularity with places like Dishoom in London and Edinburgh serving it on their menus. You might think I keep harping about flavour combinations, but cheddar cheese with spring onions and green chillies is like a match made in heaven. The saltiness of the cheese is cut with the sharp spicy notes of the chilli. And the spring onions just add the right crunch to this otherwise cheesy toast.

I normally make Chilli Cheese Toast for breakfast or brunch. But on long wintry evenings, nothing is better than soup and toast. Having a dinner party at home, Chilli Cheese Toast serves as the perfect canapes to go along with drinks. A truly versatile recipe.
