Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons finely chopped shallot
- 2 teaspoons curry powder (preferably Madras)
- 1 teaspoon vegetable oil
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 1 baguette
- 1 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
- 1/2 lb extra-sharp Cheddar
- 1/4 cup very thinly sliced fennel bulb (sometimes called anise; quartered lengthwise and cored before slicing)
Instructions
- Cook shallot and curry powder in oil in a 12-inch heavy nonstick skillet over moderate heat, stirring, 2 minutes, then transfer to a small bowl and stir in mayonnaise and lemon juice. Wipe skillet clean and set aside.
- Cut 16 (1/4-inch-thick) diagonal slices (about 6 inches long) from baguette. Spread 1 side of each slice with butter, then turn over and spread opposite side with curry mayonnaise. Cut cheese into thin slices no wider than bread slices. Divide cheese among 8 slices of bread, then top with fennel and remaining slices of bread, buttered sides up.
- Heat skillet over moderate heat until hot, then cook sandwiches in 2 batches, turning over once and pressing occasionally, until browned and cheese is melted, about 7 minutes per batch.
