Ingredients

  • 1.5-2 tbsp gochujang or korean chili paste
  • tbsp vegan mayonnaise
  • 1 tsp minced garlic
  • 1.5 tsp sesame oil
  • 4 slices of your favourite bread (I used multigrain toasts)
  • 2-3 tbsp vegan mayonnaise or butter
  • 2 tbsp gochujang or korean chili paste (optional but highly recommended!)
  • 1 cup vegan mozzarella and cheddar cheese shreds ((I used Daiya's cheese))
  • 1 cup vegan kimchi (homemade recipe here)

Instructions

  1. 1

    Mix together the gochujang mayo. Feel free to adjust to your taste.

  2. 2

    Spread a generous amount of vegan mayonnaise or butter onto the outer sides of each piece of bread.

  3. 3

    Heat a pan over medium to medium high heat. Once hot, place the sandwich, mayonnaise/butter side down.On the other side, spread some more mayo. Flip the bread over. Over the toasted side, spread the gochujang mayo. Add a generous amount of cheese and kimchi.

  4. 4

    Flip one of the slices of bread to cover the sandwich. Place a heavy flat surface, like a plate, on top to press down the sandwich and leave it over medium to allow to toast until golden brown.

  5. 5

    Once golden brown and crisp, flip to toast the other side of sandwich.Repeat this for the other sandwich. Enjoy!
