Ingredients

Blue Clouds – 100g

Whole Milk - 150ml

Plain Flour - 20g

Butter – 20g

Dijon Mustard – 1 teaspoon

Small bunch of flatleaf parsley

– finely chopped.

4 slices Sourdough

4 thick slices of ham or British

charcuterie of your choice.

Salt and Pepper to season.

Method

Place saucepan over a medium heat and

add butter. When melted add flour and stir

in. Cook the roux for a couple of minutes

before gradually adding the milk. Stir whilst

the sauce begins to thicken. Continue to

stir for another 4-5 minutes to cook the

flour out. Add the Blue Clouds, mustard

and parsley. Stir until the cheese has

melted and the sauce is of a smooth

consistency. Season to taste and set aside.

Lightly grill your sourdough on both sides

and butter. Place your ham on each of

the toasts and top with the rich, creamy

sauce. Place back under the grill until

bubbling. Serve immediately with a side of

British watercress which cuts through the

richness of the toasties.
