                        CROQUE-MONSIEUR CHEZ JEAN

                       [Grilled Cheese and Ham Sandwich]

 
  Recipe Description:  A croque-monsieur is based upon an old cheese recipe.  It is a favorite French street sandwich, sold at both sidewalk kiosks and restaurants, that has a crusty exterior stuffed with ham and Gruyere cheese.
 
  Preparation Time: 10 minutes Cooking Time: 10 minutes
 
Ingredients:

8 slices of crust less white bread
4 tbs heavy cream
4 slices of Gruyère cheese
4 slices of ham
2 eggs.
1 tbs Butter
Salt, pepper, herbs de Provence


Serves: 4 persons














 


 Preparation:
  • Beat the 2 whole eggs in a container and add the cream, salt, pepper and herbs;
  • Dredge the bread in this mixture;
  • Put 4 slices of the battered bread into a hot frying pan and reduce the heat to simmer;
  • Place 1 slice each of the cheese and the ham on each slice of bread.  Cap each build-up with a battered slice of bread;
  • Cover the pan and simmer on both sides until done, checking frequently [about 10 minutes].
  • Note 1:  You can make this recipe into one for a Croque-Madame by sautéing an egg, sunny-side up, sprinkled with salt, pepper and herbs and placing it on top of the Croque-Monsieur.
  •  
  • Note 2:  The above recipe can be deep fried by substituting about 54 g of grated Gruyère, for the sliced cheese.
