A French classic Croque Madame with a classic French ‘Dijon’ Mustard, though this particular smooth, hot condiment is home made by Stokes, here in Rendlesham. Do you know the difference between a Croque Madame and a Croque Monsieur … Madame gets the egg !
Method
1. Heat a frying pan on medium heat and put oven on a low heat. Put the ham, cheese and Dijon Mustard between 2 slices of sourdough, then spread mayonnaise on the outside of the sandwich on both sides.
2. Fry each side until golden. Place in the oven to keep warm. In the frying pan, fry 1 or 2 eggs and top the croque with the egg and serve with salad.
