How to make Mallorcan sandwich – With leftovers and melted cheese:
First of all select the bread, I have used the classic cereal sliced bread but you can use the one you like best. And if you feel like it, you can make homemade bread by following the recipe for homemade sliced bread. Then place the slices of cheese on two of the bread tops, as seen in the photo. The Majorcan sandwich is usually made with Gouda cheese but you can use any other similar cheese like Edam for example. The important thing is that it is a cheese that melts with the heat. Now, spread the sobrasada over the cheese on each of the loaves. I must say that without a doubt, the best sobrassada is the original Majorcan, if you have this type, you can place small pieces covering the entire surface of the bread, otherwise, if you have the one that comes as a paste, then spread the whole slice of cheese well. Place the other bread cover on top to form the sandwiches. Then, butter both sides of each of them, top and bottom.
To finish with the sobrasada and cheese sandwich, take it to a hot pan and brown on each side. The idea is that everything melts inside and the sobrassada is heated. Butter spread on the outside of the Mallorcan sandwich will make it brown more easily. When it is well browned on both sides, you can serve and enjoy the delicious Majorcan sandwich.
