- Once the sauce has sufficiently thickened, remove from the heat, and add in ¼ cup of grated OKA cheese. Stir until completely melted. Set aside.
Sandwich Assembly
- Heat a skillet on medium low. Butter 4 slices of the Au Pain Dore Croissant Loaf and add to skillet.
- Spread a generous dollop of the OKA Bechamel sauce on each slice.
- Top with 3 slices of ham on each.
- Using half of the grated OKA cheese, top the ham.
- Close the sandwiches with another slice of the Croissant Loaf and butter the tops.
- Grill the sandwiches until golden brown on both sides.
- Once all 4 sandwiches are perfectly golden brown, place them on a parchment lined baking sheet, spread another generous dollop of the OKA Bechamel on top, and top with the remaining grated OKA cheese.
- Broil for 1-2 minutes or until the bubbly and golden. Set aside.
- Wipe out the skillet used to grill the sandwiches, melt the remaining butter and fry eggs sunny side up.
- Place one egg on top of each sandwich and serve immediately.
