Step-by-step recipe

check things off as you go
  1. Préparer le pain

    Découpe les 8 tranches de pain de mie en deux dans l'épaisseur pour obtenir 16 fines tranches. Dispose-les sur une assiette.

  2. Monter les croques

    Sur 8 tranches fines de pain, dépose une tranche de jambon et une tranche de fromage. Recouvre avec les 8 autres tranches de pain pour former 8 mini croque-monsieur.

  3. Faire fondre le beurre

    Mets la poêle antiadhésive à feu moyen et fais fondre le beurre sans le laisser brunir.

    Tip · Pour éviter que le beurre ne brûle, baisse le feu si la poêle fume.
  4. Cuire les croques

    Dépose les 8 croque-monsieur dans la poêle chaude. Fais cuire 2 min de chaque côté jusqu'à ce qu'ils soient dorés et que le fromage fonde.

    Tip · Appuie légèrement sur les croques avec une spatule pour qu'ils dorent uniformément.
  5. Préparer la vinaigrette

    Dans un bol, mélange l'huile, le vinaigre, une pincée de sel et une pincée de poivre avec une fourchette.

  6. Laver la salade

    Lave les 150 g de salade verte à l'eau claire et essore-la rapidement dans tes mains.

  7. Assaisonner la salade

    Verse la vinaigrette sur la salade et mélange bien pour l'enrober uniformément.

  8. Servir

    Sers les 8 croque-monsieur chauds avec la salade verte assaisonnée 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!
