Ingredients |
butter
4 thick slices of crusty stale bread
1 clove garlic, cut in half
200ml dry white wine
4 slices cooked ham
200g gruyère, beaufort or comté cheese, finely grated
4 eggs (optional)
butter for frying
nutmeg, a good grating (optional)
|
If you don't have stale bread to use up, just toast it first
|
-
Heat the oven to 200C/ 180C
Fan/ Gas 6. Butter 4 ovenproof bowls just large enough to
hold a slice of bread (alternatively, use a large baking
tray)
-
Rub both sides of the bread
slices with the cut side of the garlic and then divide
between the bowls. Pour over the wine and then top with
the ham and then the cheese.
-
Bake for 20 mins. If you're
serving the eggs, fry these in a little butter in the
meantime and then add to the top along with a grating of
nutmeg, if you like, before serving with a green salad.
