Hot Turkey Parma Sandwich

Ingredients:

Pesto with garlic

• 450 g fresh parsley
• 220 g fresh basil
• 100 g of toasted walnuts
• 0.5 tsp black pepper
• 4 crushed garlic cloves
• 1 egg
• Zest and juice of 1 lemon
• 220 gr. olive oil
• 0.5 tbsp. grated parmesan
• Salt and black pepper

Sandwich

• 110 g butter
• 8 slices rosemary garlic sourdough bread
• 220 g cheddar (or sharp white cheddar)
• 200 g of baked turkey
• 0.5 cups sun-dried tomatoes in olive oil
• 110 gr. grated parmesan

Preparation:

1. Pesto with garlic:
   
   Combine parsley, basil, walnuts, pepper, garlic, egg, lemon zest, and juice in a blender. Blend until smooth, then slowly drizzle in oil to create a sauce.
2. Sprinkle the sauce with grated Parmesan and add salt to taste.
3. Sandwich:
   
   Generously butter the bread. On 4 buttered slices of bread, top with half the cheddar, 4 tablespoons pesto aioli, turkey, sun-dried tomatoes, and the remaining cheddar; top the sandwiches with the remaining slices of bread.
4. Preheat the griddle surface to 160-175°C.
5. Sprinkle Parmesan cheese over the bread-shaped griddle sections, then immediately place the sandwiches on top. Press down with something heavy (like a cast-iron skillet) and cook until the cheese is melted, about 2.5 minutes per side. If the Parmesan-crusted side is difficult to remove with a spatula, cook for another minute, then flip. Slice the sandwiches diagonally and enjoy!
