Preparation

Start by selecting a slice of your preferred bread. Lay it flat on a clean surface. Wash and slice the tomato into thin slices. If you’re using mozzarella cheese, slice it into thin pieces as well, or you can opt for shredded cheese for ease. Spread a thin layer of mayonnaise (or your preferred creamy dressing) over the bread slice. Arrange the tomato slices evenly on top of the mayonnaise. Layer the cheese over the tomatoes. You can adjust the quantity of cheese based on your preference.

Cooking

Preheat your oven's broiler to a high setting. Place the prepared open-faced sandwich on a baking sheet and broil for about 3-5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and slightly golden. Keep an eye on it to prevent burning.

Serving

Once done, remove the open-faced sandwich from the oven. Allow it to cool for a minute or two before serving. This dish is best enjoyed warm, right after the cheese has melted to perfection. You can garnish with fresh herbs like basil or oregano for an additional flavor boost.
