Brioche and Cheese

Spicy Mornay Sauce

Kennebec Fries

Method

Spicy Mornay Sauce

  1. 1

    Make the Mornay Sauce

    In a saucepan, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add the flour and whisk continuously for about 1 minute. Gradually add the milk while whisking to prevent lumps. Cook until the sauce thickens, then stir in cayenne pepper, salt, black pepper, and Parmesan cheese. Remove from heat and set aside.

Kennebec Fries

  1. 2

    Prepare the Fries

    Slice the Kennebec potatoes into fries and soak them in water for 30 minutes. Drain and pat dry. Heat vegetable oil in a deep fryer or large pot to 350°F (175°C). Fry the potatoes in batches until golden brown and crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels, then season with salt.

Grilled Cheese Assembly

  1. 3

    Assemble and Grill the Sandwich

    Butter one side of each slice of brioche bread. On the unbuttered side, layer cave-aged cheddar cheese, lobster meat, and then the spicy mornay sauce. Top with another slice of bread, buttered side up. Grill the sandwich in a skillet over medium heat until golden brown on both sides and the cheese is melted, about 3-4 minutes per side.
