Place 4 slices of bread on your work surface, buttered side down. Spread the honey mustard on the other side of the bread. Place about 2 tablespoons of the mango salsa on the bread followed by the Swiss cheese. (You may need to fold the cheese slices to fit the bread.) Place the remaining 4 bread slices on top, buttered side up.
• Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of curry butter to a nonstick skillet on medium heat for 2 minutes. Put the sandwiches in the skillet (in batches if necessary) and cover with lid and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, or until the underside is golden brown and the cheese has started to melt. Flip the sandwiches with a spatula and press very firmly, cook for 2 to 3 minutes, or until the cheese has melted. Turn once more, press with a spatula, and cook for 30 seconds.

CARIBBEAN GRILLED SHRIMP

Steps:

• Prepare your shrimp, and leave in the fridge until you're ready.
• Next, mix the rum, brown sugar, cayenne pepper, ground pepper, chopped basil, olive oil, garlic salt and juice from 2 of the limes.
• Using a chocolate grater, add the zest from the third lime to the mix.
• Use the juice from the last lime, and add that to the mix as well.
• Place your shrimp into the liquid, and leave for between 1 - 2 hours. (60 minutes seems to be the magic number for us, because after that, the rum is a little overpowering).
• Grill on a hot barbeque about 2-3 minutes each side, or until pink. The caramelisation is amazing!
• In absence of a barbeque, pan frying or broiling is good too.
• We serve on stir fried vegetables (using the juice from the mix) and pasta.
• ENJOY!
