I mean toast that is baked with fillings.
Haven't you heard of béchamel sauce?
Simply put, it's a cream sauce 🙂
The cream sauce we commonly know
It is called béchamel sauce in French.
With this sauce, cream spaghetti, soup,
Various things such as fish sauce or pizza sauce
You can make food
You may use store-bought cream sauce, but,
Today, I even made the béchamel sauce myself.
I'm going to make a Croque Monsieur (sandwich).

Now, let's get started on making the Croque Monsieur.
Please lightly grill the sliced ham in a frying pan.
You don't need to cook it for too long, so please grill it well on both sides.


I'm going to put some butter in a frying pan and toast the bread.


Please spread the prepared béchamel sauce on the bread.

Place the grilled sliced ham on top.

Please put the Gouda cheese and bread back on top.


Please bake until crispy, flipping it over on both sides.

Please spread béchamel sauce on the top slice of bread one more time.

I'm going to bake the bread in the oven.
Transfer the bread to an oven dish or pan.

Please sprinkle plenty of mozzarella cheese.


Place in a preheated oven and bake at 190 degrees for 13 minutes.


Finished off by sprinkling with parsley 🙂
It was grilled so deliciously!!
