Instructions
1
Layer the ham and cheese generously between the bread slices, right to the edges so every bite gets some.

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.
