Here's how you can create this sweet and savory brunch treat at home:

Ingredients

For the Strawberry Rhubarb Compote:

  • 1 cup fresh strawberries, hulled and chopped
  • 1 cup rhubarb, chopped
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice

For the Grilled Cheese:

  • 8 slices of bread (sourdough or your favorite type)
  • 8 oz Brie cheese, sliced
  • Butter for grilling

Instructions

1. Prepare the Strawberry Rhubarb Compote:

In a medium saucepan, combine the chopped strawberries, rhubarb, sugar, and lemon juice. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the fruit breaks down and the mixture thickens, about 10-15 minutes. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.

2. Assemble the Grilled Cheese:

Butter one side of each slice of bread. Place the bread slices buttered side down on a cutting board.

  • Spread a generous amount of the strawberry rhubarb compote on 4 of the slices.
  • Top the compote with slices of Brie cheese.
  • Place the remaining 4 slices of bread on top, buttered side up, to form sandwiches.

3. Grill the Sandwiches:

Heat a skillet or griddle over medium heat. Grill the sandwiches until the bread is golden brown and crispy, and the Brie cheese is melted, about 3-4 minutes per side. Press down gently with a spatula to ensure even grilling.

Serve:

Slice the grilled cheese sandwiches in half and serve immediately. Enjoy with extra strawberry rhubarb compote on the side if desired.
