1. Spread a generous amount of pesto onto one slice of bread. I used my walnut-parsley pesto.
2. Grate your favorite cheese and spread it onto the other slice of bread.

If you cook it on a Tawa (or skillet) first fry the slice that has cheese. Cover with a lid for 5 minutes over medium heat. Then, cover the cheese slice with the pesto one. Next, melt butter and fry each side for 2-3 minutes until golden brown.
