As I mentioned, this breaded cheese sandwich would normally be fried in a half-inch of oil.
Most importantly, the sandwich’s flavor and texture remain brilliant.
To make two sandwiches, lay out four slices of bread.
Put two slices of cheese on two pieces of bread and top the sandwiches with the other bread slice.
Trim off the edges, which will make breading them easier.
Cut the sandwiches in half diagonally so you have four pieces.
Apply the coating
Scramble two eggs in a bowl with a bit of water and salt.
Add flour to a large plate, and bread crumbs to a wide bowl.
(Dont forget to coat the edges too.)
Place the coated sandwiches on a wire rack positioned over a sheet tray.
Repeat this with all the pieces and let them dry for about 10 minutes.
Coat each sandwich one more time in the egg wash and then the bread crumbs.
Let them dry on the wire rack again, for about five minutes this time.
Air fry

Using an oil sprayerlike this one, spray a layer of neutral cooking oil onto the sandwiches.
confirm to get oil on each side.
Air fry for seven or eight minutes, flipping the sandwiches carefully halfway through the cooking time.
