    Step 15 Detail

    Alternatively, pan-fry the bread slices separately first, then assemble the sandwich (don’t flip the whole assembled sandwich — the filling will fall out!!). Pan-fried version gives a stronger egg flavor on the crust, while the air fryer gives a deeper toasted bread aroma. Choose whichever you prefer!
