1. Heat 1 tbsp (15 ml) vegetable oil in a skillet over medium; add minced garlic and sliced oyster mushrooms, season with salt and pepper, sauté until golden and moisture evaporates, finish with a squeeze of lemon juice and set aside. 2. Butter or lightly oil one side of each bread slice. Assemble sandwich: cheese on the unbuttered side, then a layer of sautéed mushrooms, tomato slices, extra cheese, and top with second slice (buttered side out). 3. Heat a clean skillet over medium-low and cook the sandwich 3–4 minutes per side, pressing gently, until bread is golden and cheese is melted. 4. Let rest 1 minute, slice, and serve immediately. ---
