Chop the banana and mix into the chocolate spread. Spoon between two slices of bread and cook for a minute and a half each side over a low heat. Turn out the Diablo and dust with icing sugar. Amazing. Once you’ve turned your toastie maker on and it starts to heat up, you’re nearly ready to go. Simply look out for the indicator light that comes on when your toastie maker is hot enough to use.
A good sandwich toaster should seal your toastie well so you don't have any leaky filling. It should also cook the sandwiches evenly, with consistent toasting and heat throughout. How we test The main thing to consider before you buy is the plates. Do you want deep-fill ones so you can cram in as much filling as possible, or would you like removable plates that you can put in the dishwasher so your kitchen can be clean ASAP? For those of you who love fish, a tuna melt is a wonderful filling lunchtime option. We tend to use ¾ of a can of tuna for this recipe, but if you’re sharing a can between you and a friend, you could go for half and top up with extra cheese. Not exactly a hardship… here for our list of Diablo Sandwich Toaster recipes, all tried and tested at least twice with pictures toIf you’re using vegetables, then use pre-cooked ones. They won’t cook from raw in the 4-5 minutes in a toastie. Heap the pie filling onto one side of the Diablo. You can used pre-prepared, canned pie filling or create a great home-made taste with stewed apples, brown sugar, sultanas and cinnamon. Either way, be sure to fill the Diablo. Close down the Diablo and cut off the excess crust and bread with the blunt side off a knife. STEP 2 These toastie makers are perfect for one person, so if there are two of you (or more), you might like to consider getting one each – and enjoy all the fun of the Who Makes the Best Toastie Contest!
Ah, the most iconic of all toasties: the simple cheese and beans. The beauty of this toastie is that you don’t even have to heat up your beans beforehand. Grate or slice your cheddar and place it onto your slice of bread. Then simply open a can of your favourite variety (it has to be Heinz, right?), spoon a tablespoon of beans on top of the cheese and you’re ready to go. Cheese and ham It was four years ago I bought a Diablo toastie maker – and today I’ve got to dig it out again as there’s a Beach BBQ potentially on the cards (weather permitting, as they say!). These are “as seen at the Ideal Home Show” in London too last year, if you were there! Beat the egg milk and flour together and pass though a strainer so it’s deliciously smooth. Dip the bread into the egg batter ensuring you coat it thoroughly. Place one piece of bread inside the Diablo maker, spoon the jam on top and then add the other slice of eggy bread. Cook for a minute and a half each side on a high heat. Sprinkle with caster sugar to serve and don’t eat any more sugar for anotherWhat’s also attractive, to me, is that there’s usually no need to butter the outside of the toasties, something I hate doing when having used a toasted sandwich maker in the past as I found I got in a messy muddle with that. Melt the butter in a large saucepan over a low heat add the diced onion and cook until soft. Next pour in the wine and cook the alcohol off. Stir in the plain flour and cook for 1 minute. Add the mustard
The Diablo is really robust and built to last a lifetime. The two halves can also be separated instantly, because of the unique hinge which means you open it out fully and the hinge enables separation of the two halves – making two miniature frying pans, ideal for campfire eggs! This design also means it’s even easier to clean and keep it clean. the warmed up metal parts!). Place the sliced pepperoni / salami on the bread and pile the filling onto the slice of bread and then place the Use any type of bread – including tortillas, folded or cut to size or even brioche bread for sweet toasties. If you’re cooking meat or fish, then use ready-cooked meat or fish, not raw. Toasties do not cook for long enough to cook meat and fish through (although it might be fun to explore cooking a single burger over an open camp fire (without the bread), which will take a lot more than the 2 minutes each side to achieve, but might be great for those raw burger and rare burger lovers!
INGREDIENTS
If you’re at the Ideal Home Show at any time, you might spot them, although (sshhh) you can buy them online much cheaper. Camping shops and caravan and camping shows will probably have these for sale. Otherwise, there’s always the cheats method – buy online!: As a variation on a theme, try a turnover. Make as for the Angelic Apple Pie above, but use Filo pastry instead of shortcrust and split it so that only three very, very thin sheets are used for each side of the Diablo. Cherry pie filling makes a great turnover treat. If you read about it first, then see it, it might look smaller than you expected. The Diablo is 4″ across and the sides are tapered. Advertised dimensions give: There’s no limit to the variety of ingredients that can be put together to make a great tasting Diablo. For example:
