I found this recipe in a weekend magazine. It makes for such a great brunch or lunch. Simple, quick and tasty.
Ingredients:
20 g butter
1 tablespoon plain flour
1 cup milk
1/4 cup swiss cheese, grated
8 slices bread, crusts removed
dijon mustard, for spreading
1/3 cup swiss cheese, grated extra
200 g smoked ham, shaved
50 g butter, softened (extra)
Directions:
1. Melt the butter in a small frying pan over low heat. Add the flour and cook for 1-2 minutes or until sandy like in texture. Gradually whisk in the milk, add the 1/4 cup of cheese and cook, stirring, for 3-4 minutes or until thickened and set aside.
2. Spread half the bread slices with the mustard and top with the extra cheese and then ham.
3. Spread the remaining slices with the pre made cheese mixture and sandwich both sides together. Spread the sandwiches with butter on both sides.
4. Heat a large non-stick frying pan over high heat and using extra butter, cook sandwiches (pending on pan size in batches ) for approx 2-3 minutes each side or until golden and the cheese is melted.
5. Serve whilst hot.
