This amazing simple-to-prepare Monte Cristo is loaded up with ham and gruyere cheese and then battered and fried for the ultimate hot sandwich recipe.
The Monte Cristo sandwich is a classically French sandwich that features ham and cheese with bread that is then battered and fried in a pan. The best way I can explain it is that it’s like a grilled ham and cheese French toast. It is often served with a side of red currant or raspberry jelly and sprinkled with powdered sugar making it a tasty sandwich for either breakfast or lunch.
This easy-to-make Monte Cristo sandwich is perfect using up any leftover ham from the holidays or just as a simple meal served up using sliced deli ham.
