Sweet soy croque-monsieur
Croque-monsieur with sweet soy sauce is a delicious twist on the French classic. Its rich flavour, quick prep and simple ingredients make it ideal for an easy lunch or casual dinner.
Preparation
Step 1
1 tbsp butter – 1 tbsp flour – 180 ml milk – 1 tbsp Kikkoman Sauce for Rice - sweet – 1 pinch nutmeg – Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
Prepare the béchamel sauce: heat the butter in a small pot over medium heat. Add the flour and, stirring, fry until golden brown for about a minute. Gradually pour in the milk, stirring constantly until smooth. Cook over low heat until the sauce thickens. Add the Kikkoman Sauce for Rice, nutmeg, salt and pepper. Stir and season to taste.
Step 2
4 slices toast bread – 4 slices ham – 100 g Gruyere cheese, grated
Spread the béchamel sauce on one side of each slice of bread. Place half of the cheese and the ham on 2 slices, then top with the remaining slices—sauce side up. Transfer to a baking tray, spread more béchamel sauce on top and sprinkle with the rest of the cheese. Bake in an oven preheated to 180°C for about 12 minutes. Serve immediately, for example with a green salad and vinaigrette.
