Ingredients

Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Make the Béchamel Sauce

    In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the flour and whisk continuously for about 2 minutes until it forms a roux. Gradually add the milk while whisking to avoid lumps. Cook until the sauce thickens, then season with salt, black pepper, and nutmeg.

  2. 2

    Assemble the Sandwich

    On two slices of bread, layer slices of comté cheese and prosciutto cotto. Pour some béchamel sauce over the prosciutto, then top with another slice of bread.

  3. 3

    Grill the Sandwich

    Spread a little butter on the outside of each sandwich. Heat a skillet over medium heat and grill the sandwiches until golden brown and the cheese is melted, about 3-4 minutes per side.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Cut the sandwiches in half and serve immediately, optionally with a side salad.
