Classic Croque Madame
Ingredients
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
  • 2 thick slices white bread
  • 2 slices ham
  • 1 egg
Instructions
1
Heat a saucepan over medium heat, allowing it to warm up before adding the butter. Once the butter has started to melt, incorporate the cheese into the mixture, stirring until it is fully incorporated.
2
Dip each slice of bread into the melted cheese mixture, ensuring both sides are evenly coated.
3
Heat a skillet over medium heat and prepare it for cooking. Place one slice of bread into the preheated skillet, followed by 2 slices of ham on top.
4
Add another slice of bread on top to complete the sandwich, then cook until it is golden brown on both sides.
5
Once cooked to your liking, remove the sandwich from the skillet and set it aside.
6
Fry an egg in the same hot skillet you used for cooking the sandwich, using your preferred level of doneness.
7
Place the cooked egg on top of the sandwich and serve immediately.
