Golden toasted bread layered with ham and melting cheese: café-simple, bistro-friendly and impossible not to like.

Serves: 4 people

Preparation time: 12 min

Ingredients

  • Sandwich bread – 8 slices
  • Ham – 4 slices
  • Gruyère or Emmental – 8 slices
  • Butter – 30 g
  • Béchamel, optional – 150 ml
  • Salad leaves – 1 handful
  • Black pepper – to taste

Method

Butter the bread, fill with ham and cheese and toast in a pan, oven or sandwich press until the outside is crisp and the inside melted. Add a spoonful of béchamel on top before baking if you want a fuller bistro version. Serve with a simple salad.
