Hot sandwiches with cheese and sausage

Ingredients:

• 3 tablespoons of sugar
• 0.5 cup apple cider vinegar
• 3 tablespoons of vegetable oil
• 1 package (450 g) shredded coleslaw mix
• 0.5 cup coarsely chopped fresh herbs (such as parsley and dill)
• 200 g of cooked smoked sausages, cut diagonally into 0.5 cm thick slices.
• 2 tbsp. grainy mustard
• 8 slices of rye bread
• 8 slices cheddar (about 170 g)
• Half a jalapeño, thinly sliced ​​(remove seeds to reduce heat)
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter

Preparation:

1. In a large bowl, mix the sugar and vinegar until the sugar dissolves, then stir in 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil. Add the coleslaw mix and herbs, season with salt and pepper, and toss to combine.
2. In a large nonstick skillet, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add the sausage and cook until browned on both sides, 2 minutes; drain on paper towels.
3. Spread mustard on the bread, then sandwich a slice of cheese, sausage, jalapeño, and another slice of cheese between two slices.
4. Wipe out the skillet; add 1/2 tablespoon butter and melt over medium heat. Add 2 sandwiches and press them down with another heavy skillet. Cook, pressing lightly, until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted, 4 to 5 minutes per side, adding another 1/2 tablespoon butter to the skillet as you flip the sandwiches. Transfer to a plate. Repeat with the remaining sandwiches. Serve with coleslaw.
