This brought back such great memories when I recently saw Merryl Streep serve this Sandwich to Steve Martin for dinner in the movie "It's Complicated". This sandwich is so easy but elegant and pairs perfect with a tossed green salad. Recipe follows:
Serves 4
8 slices white bread
2 Table spoons unsalted butter (softened)
4 slices black forest ham
4 slices imported swiss cheese
2 eggs slightly beaten, with a few drops of water
Salt and black pepper
Directions:
Spread each slice of bread with softened butter. Add 1 slice of cheese and 1 slice of ham to each sandwich. Press sandwich firmly together.
Beat egg with water, add salt and pepper to taste
Heat heavy-bottomed frying pan, add 2 tablespoons of butter melt until bubbling stops but before browning. Skillet must be very hot!!! Fry on each side over medium flame for 4-5 minutes. The outside will resemble French Toast!!!
Serve with a simple green salad tossed with a light Vingarette!!!
Enjoy
