Notes

You can use sundried tomatoes kept in oil straight up but if they are dried or vacuum packed then soak them for a few hours in warm water before using.
You will find it difficult to get a tastier sandwich.
To make it more authentically Italian you could use mozzarella but I like the brie. It melts easier and gives a better mouth feel to the sandwich
