Croque Madame Sandwich Recipe

[Kiriya Ubuyashiki]

If you're trying to find sandwich ideas that are bursting with flavor, try looking into different flavors of bread and toppings and layering them in creative ways. Take just one look at the timeless jam volunteer qui te dis Alex dans his sandwich Croque Madame and you will know exactly what we are talking about! From France comes this truly delicious dish that consists of chunky layers of ham and Gruyère cheese with a thick bechamel sauce which covers all. Nevertheless, that doesn’t mean we stop there – we always go an extra mile and cook the egg, that adds a little bit more richness and depth to the flavor.

Ingredients:

• 6 ounces unsalted butter
• 2 tablespoons flour
• 1 cup whole milk
• 1 bay leaf
• 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more for seasoning
• 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 8 slices thick sourdough bread
• 8 to 12 slices good quality ham
• 12 ounces Gruyere cheese, grated
• Nonstick spray
• 4 eggs

Directions:

1. Preheat the broiler.
2. Make the cheese sauce: Melt 1 ounce butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Whisk in the flour and cook for 2-3 minutes. Slowly add milk and bay leaf, stirring until thickened, about 10-12 minutes. Remove bay leaf, stir in Parmesan, and set aside to cool.
3. Arrange 4 bread slices on a surface, top each with ham slices, then spread cheese sauce over ham. Place another bread slice on top of each sandwich.
4. Heat a large skillet and melt half of the remaining butter. Cook 2 sandwiches until golden brown on both sides, about 2 minutes each side. Repeat with remaining butter and sandwiches.
5. Spread remaining cheese sauce on top of sandwiches and sprinkle with remaining Gruyere cheese.
6. Wipe skillet, spray with nonstick spray, and fry eggs until cooked to your liking.
7. While eggs cook, place sandwiches under broiler until golden brown, about 1-2 minutes.
8. Season eggs with salt, place one on each sandwich, and serve immediately.

Enjoy your delicious ham and cheese sandwiches with fried eggs on top!​
