I need a good Monte Cristo recipe. The ones that I have tried turned into a terrible mess. I'm usually pretty good following recipes, too.
Ask, and ye shall receive:
MONTE CRISTO (serving size 1/2 sandwich)
Ingredients:
Combine flour, baking powder and salt in medium bowl. In a separate bowl, beat eggs with milk; stir egg mixture into flour mixture until smooth.
- 1½ cups flour
- 2 tsp baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 2 eggs
- 1½ cups milk
- 8 slices Texas Toast bread
- 4 slices of Swiss cheese
- 1 lb Sliced ham
- 1 lb Sliced turkey
- box of toothpicks
Lay out 4 slices of Texas Toast bread. Add ¼ of the ham, ¼ of the turkey, and 1 slice of Swiss cheese, and place slice of Texas Toast on top. Cut each sandwich in half diagonally, corner to corner. Secure each sandwich half with several toothpicks.
Dip each sandwich half in batter to coat, allowing excess to run off before placing into the deep fryer. (I use a pair of teflon tongs to handle the sandwiches). DO NOT PLACE SANDWICH HALVES IN DEEP FRYER BASKET. THEY WILL STICK TO THE BASKET!
Deep fry for about 3 minutes, turning once, until golden brown on both sides. Drain on paper towels.
Remove toothpicks, plate, and dust with powdered sugar. Serve with a huge dollop of strawberry preserves. Add a sliced strawberry or mixed berry salad if desired.
Potatoes au gratin with onions, and kielbasa.
yea boy, i could be happy having that for my breakfast every day for a month, couldn't everyone?!
