Croque Monsieur OR Croque Madame I Simple French recipe for the tastiest sandwich

The fir eats / Julia Hartbeck

The deliciously rich and cheesy croque-madame sandwich is a variation on the famous croque-monsieur. The croque-madame is similar to the croque-monsieur in almost every way. Both feature ham a creamy béchamel sauce and Gruyère cheese but the croque-madame is topped with a fried egg. The soft egg yolk adds a rich sauciness to this hearty sandwich.

Fun fact: "croque-monsieur" means "Mr. Crunch" while "croque-madame" means "Mrs. Crunch."
