Melt half the butter in a pan over low heat, add the onion and a pinch of salt, and cook gently for 10 minutes until soft.
Stir in the brown sugar and cook for 3 to 4 more minutes until the onions turn golden and jammy, then set aside.
Butter the outside of each bread slice with the remaining butter and spread mustard on the inside faces.
Layer cheddar, caramelised onion and sliced gherkins between the slices, then press together.
Toast in a hot pan or press for 3 to 4 minutes each side until the bread is crisp and the cheese has melted.
Cut on the diagonal and serve hot, with extra gherkins on the side.
