This classic French cafe snack translates as Mrs and Mr Crispy, I used to make these for buffet events and they always disappeared first

Steps

1

Brush the bread discs with melted butter and bake at 180c for around 10 minutes or until toasted but not all the way crispy. Smear mustard onto 4 of the discs, then spread béchamel
2

Sit ham onto the béchamel and then sprinkle the cheese, spread dijon on the other 4 toast rounds and top those with a more generous amount of béchamel, sit those sauce side up on top of the 4 already covered toasts
3

Top all with remaining cheese and bake at 180c until crispy about 10/15 minutes, while baking pan fry 2 quail eggs.
4

Finish the croque madame by sitting a fried egg onto, of course the traditional dish is made with a regular sized sandwich with a regular hens egg, so feel free to size up but I just love the way these look made nibble sized, either way they are seriously lush me babbers.
