Step-by-step recipe

check things off as you go

  1. Préchauffer la poêle

    Place la poêle antiadhésive à feu moyen pour la préchauffer pendant 2 minutes.

  2. Découper les tomates

    Lave les tomates, coupe-les en tranches épaisses de 5 mm sur la planche à découper. Dispose-les sur une assiette.

  3. Assembler les croques

    Pose 2 tranches de pain de mie sur la planche. Ajoute une tranche de jambon blanc sur chacune, puis saupoudre de la moitié du fromage râpé (30 g). Referme avec les 2 autres tranches de pain.

    Tip · Pour éviter que le pain ne devienne trop mou, appuie légèrement sur les croques avant de les retourner dans la poêle.

  4. Cuire les croques

    Dépose les croques dans la poêle chaude. Laisse cuire à feu moyen 3 minutes de chaque côté, jusqu’à ce que le pain soit doré et le fromage fondu.

    Tip · Si le fromage ne fond pas assez vite, couvre la poêle avec un couvercle pendant 1 minute pour accélérer la cuisson.

  5. Assaisonner les tomates

    Arrose les tranches de tomates avec l’huile, sale et poivre légèrement. Mélange avec une fourchette pour répartir l’assaisonnement.

  6. Servir

    Sors les croques de la poêle et dépose-les sur une assiette. Ajoute la salade de tomates à côté.

Pantry salt, oil and spices aren't counted. Your store and your brands will move the total, but the ballpark is right.

How long does it keep?

Eat it fresh. Bread and wraps get soggy when they sit with the filling. Prep the filling ahead if you want, and put it together the day you eat it!
