Croque-Monsieur
|
Category: Breakfast Typical recipe from: France Ready in: 20 minutes Servings: 4 people |  |
| Ingredients: For the sandwiches: 8 slices of white bread 4 slices of cooked ham (best choices are French or Virginia ham) 4 slices of Swiss cheese For the mixture 1 cup of whole milk 2 egg yolks Salt and pepper |
Directions: In a large bowl pour the whole milk, egg yolks, salt and pepper, and mix with a fork to break yolks and obtain a uniform cream color. Prepare the sandwiches by putting the ham and cheese between two slices of bread. Heat a frying pan with 1 tablespoon of oil to prevent the bread from sticking. Using a spatula dip each face of the sandwich for 3 seconds in the mixture (soak each face for a few millimeters only) and place it immediately in the hot frying pan. Cook on medium heat and flip the sandwich every minute. Repeat 4 times (cook each face twice). When ready, serve immediately with a salad. |
