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.
