Monte Cristo Sandwich (The Real One!)
Spread the love

Ingredients:
oil, for deep-frying
2/3 cup water
1 large eggs
2/3 cup flour
1 3/4 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
8 slices white bread
4 slices swiss cheese
4 slices turkey
4 slices cooked ham
black pepper ( I use about 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper)
confectioners’ sugar, for dusting

Directions:
Heat about 5 inches oil in a deep-fryer to 365 degrees.
While the oil is heating prepare the batter; in a medium bowl whisk together the egg and water.
Combine the flour, baking powder, salt and pepper; whisk into the egg mixture until smooth; set aside and chill.
To assemble the sandwiches; place one slice of turkey one one slice of bread, then a slice of ham on an other slice of bread, then “sandwich” them with a slice of Swiss cheese in the middle.
Cut the sandwich into quarters then secure with toothpicks.
Dip each sandwich quarter into the batter so that all the sides are coated.
Deep-fry in hot oil until golden brown on all sides.
Remove the toothpicks and arrange on a serving tray.
Dust with confectioners sugar just before serving.
Delicious!
