How to Make a Croque Monsieur

One day I came across a post on the croque monsieur. Croque monsieur is a sandwich made with ham and cheese with béchamel sauce and melted cheese. It was very good. If this was the best fried egg sandwich would be a Croque Madame.

 

Ingredients

1 / 4 cup Parmigiano-Reggiano (grated)

1 / 2 cup Gruyere cheese (grated)

1 / 4 cup of bechamel

2 slices

1 / 2 teaspoon Dijon mustard

3 slices of ham

 

Directions:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• Half melted Gruyere and Parmigiano-Reggiano, all the bechamel.
• Toast bread in the oven.
• Spread Dijon mustard on a fourth slice of bread.
• Add sliced ham, and about half of the remaining Gruyere cheese. Garnish with a slice of toast others.
• Spoon sauce Bechamel sixth on the top of the sandwich.
• Sprinkle with remaining Gruyere cheese.
• Place on baking sheet and bake for 5 minutes.
• Place broiler and broil for 5 minutes. (To complete the cheese is bubbly and lightly browned.)
