Steps:
- 1. Heat a panini press according to the manufacturer's instructions. Alternatively, heat a ridged grill pan or large skillet over medium heat.
- 2. Using a serrated knife, cut the roll in half horizontally. Spread each cut side of the roll with 1 tablespoon of the fig jam, drizzle the jam with 1 teaspoon of the oil, and season it with the salt. Arrange the Cheddar pieces closely on the bottom roll half, being sure that the cheese does not hang over the sides of the roll. Cover it with the remaining roll half, jam-side down.
- 3. Place the sandwich in the panini press and cook it until the roll is toasted and golden brown and the cheese is desirably melty, about 4 minutes, depending on the press. If using a ridged grill pan or skillet, place the sandwich in the pan and top it with a cast-iron skillet or heavy saucepan. Cook until the underside is toasted, about 2 minutes. Flip the sandwich over, top it with the cast-iron skillet again, and cook until the other side is toasted and the cheese is melty, about 2 minutes more.
- 4. Cut the sandwich in half and serve it hot.

Steps:
- Lightly spread both sides of all bread slices with butter. Spread each slice with about 1-2 tablespoons dried fig jam, just enough to barely cover the bread. Mound about half a cup of shredded Manchego cheese on top of the fig spread on one slice of bread, then the other half of the cheese on another slice of bread. "Close" the sandwich with the other two slices of buttered, fig-ed bread. Heat about 1 tablespoon cooking oil (I used grapeseed) in a large pan over medium high heat. Place both sandwiches in the pan and cook until the bread is browned, about three minutes. Turn the sandwich over and cook until the other side is browned and the cheese has melted, another two minutes. The cooked sandwich will be much thinner. Cut and serve hot.
