Brie Croque Monsieur Sandwich Food

BRIE AND APPLE SANDWICH

Steps:

• Sorry to be so non-specific.
• I just had this sandwich in a restaurant and posted a thread talking about it- several people asked me to post it as a recipe, so I'm kind of guessing here.
• Split the baguette for a sandwich.
• Slice the brie into medium thick slices and place a layer on each side of the open baguette.
• Place in a 350 oven for a few minutes to warm the brie.
• Top with apple slices, a little chutney or preserves and sprinkle toasted walnuts over.

THE CLASSIC FRENCH BISTRO SANDWICH - CROQUE MONSIEUR

Steps:

• Spread the bread with some of the softened butter, make 4 sandwiches, each with one slice of ham and one slice of cheese. Press them firmly together.
• Beat the eggs with the water, add the salt and pepper to taste, and dip the sandwiches into the egg mixture, coating all sides well.
• Heat the rest of the butter in a heavy- bottomed frying pan/skillet, when it has melted and is very hot - but not brown, fry the sandwiches for about 5 - 8 minutes, turning once.
• Serve immediately.
• If you prefer, although it is not traditional, you may place the croque-monsieur into a very well-buttered baking pan and bake in a moderately hot oven - 175°C/350°F - turning once, for about 10 to 15 minutes. It is easier to prepare a larger number this way and keep them warm until you are ready to serve them.

BRIE CROQUE MONSIEUR SANDWICH

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs, milk salt and pepper. Set aside.
• Assemble six sandwiches, each with one slice of ham and two slices of cheese between two slices of bread. Cut each sandwich into quarters.
• Heat half of the melted butter in a large nonstick pan on medium heat, swirling to coat bottom of pan.
• Dip half of the sandwich quarters into the egg and milk mixture, turning to coat. Immediately place in preheated pan, and cook for 2-3 minutes per side or until bread is golden brown and cheese is melting. Repeat with remaining butter and sandwiches. Serve hot.
