Ingredients

8bread slices
4ham slices
2 cupsgruyere cheese, grated
1 cupbéchamel sauce

Instructions

1

Layer the ham and cheese generously between the bread slices, right to the edges so every bite gets some.

2

Top the assembled sandwich with a thick layer of béchamel sauce.

3

Finish with a final scatter of extra gruyère.

4

Grill or bake until the top turns properly golden and bubbling, about 10 minutes, watching closely near the end since béchamel can catch fast.
