Croque Monsieur: The ULTIMATE Ham and Cheese Sandwich

For the full recipe visit https://www.flavournetwork.ca/recipe/...

Croque Monsieur is a classic French sandwich made with Gruyère, Parmesan, Black Forest ham, mustard and béchamel sauce. It’s served hot, with thick layers of béchamel and melty cheese, atop thin slices of soft and slightly caramelized ham. If you’re lucky enough to take a trip to Paris, you won’t have to look hard to find a good one — just pop your head into any one of the many bars and cafés across the city.

I’m heading to France in a few weeks and cannot wait to sit down on the cobbled streets, a crisp glass of Chablis in one hand and this rich and salty delight in the other. If that’s not in the cards, your next best option is to make my version of the Croque Monsieur at home. It’s perfect for brunch, especially when you need to feed a crowd, and gets even better when served with a light salad, fresh berries and maybe even a mimosa (or two!)
