Croque Sarah

Ever heard of a croque monsieur?  Well, I couldn't call this "my version of a croque monsieur" because although it was the inspiration, it's also really quite different.  What else is it?  Delicious! 

Croque Sarah

2 slices sourdough bread
2 slices black forest ham
2 slices gouda cheese (not smoked)
2 Tbsp. fig jam
1 egg
1/8 cup milk
pinch nutmeg
1/2 tsp dijon mustard

Build your sandwich by spreading the fig jam on one slice of bread.  Pile on the ham and gouda and top with the other slice of bread.  Whisk together the egg, milk, mustard, and nutmeg in a wide-mouthed bowl.  Prepare a skillet by spraying it liberally with cooking spray, and heat to medium.  Carefully dip the sandwich into the egg mixture on both sides, french-toast style, and place into the skillet.  Cook on each side for about 5 minutes, until golden brown.  Serve warm.
