We’re somewhat embarrassed to admit that we thought croque madame got its name because it’s simply a croque monsieur with an egg. It’s actually because the fried egg on top resembles a lady’s wide-brimmed hat (lightbulb moment!). Traditionally, these hot sandwiches are made with ham, Gruyère, and bechamel on slices of French white bread. Here, our chefs add a decidedly global spin, baking prosciutto, gouda, and Parmesan with a Dijon cream sauce on sourdough until the bread is crisp and the cheese is bubbling. With the added bonus of a fried egg, it's an indelible comfort—perfect for a cozy lunch or brunch.

Instructions

Adjust oven rack to top position and preheat oven to 450 degrees. Wash and dry produce.

Finely chop chives.

In a small bowl, combine cream sauce base and half the mustard. Season with pepper.

Arrange sourdough on a baking sheet in a single layer, 1-2 inches apart. Spread tops with a thin layer of cream sauce. Layer two slices with prosciutto, gouda, and a drizzle of cream sauce. Toast until bread is golden, cheese begins to melt, and prosciutto is lightly browned, 6-8 minutes.

Meanwhile, heat a drizzle of oil in a medium pan over medium heat. Once hot, crack eggs* into pan and cover. Fry eggs until whites are set, 1-2 minutes (they’ll finish cooking in the next step). Season with salt and pepper.

Once everything has toasted 6-8 minutes, remove sheet from oven. Carefully close sourdough slices, sauce sides down, to create sandwiches. Top with half the Parmesan, fried eggs, and a drizzle of cream sauce. Sprinkle with remaining Parmesan.

Return sheet to oven. Bake until cheese melts and eggs are cooked to preference, 2-3 minutes.

Divide croque madame between plates. Garnish with chives and serve.
