INSTRUCTIONS
* Note: See the .Mustard Vinaigrette. recipe which is included in this
collection.
Wash and spin dry the frisee and watercress. Remove and discard tough
stems. Set aside (you should have 6 to 8 cups). In a small bowl, cream
together the goat cheese, milk, chopped herbs, salt and pepper. Spread six
of the bread slices with the goat cheese mixture and top with a sundried
tomato. Place remaining six bread slices on top to form a sandwich. Heat a
non-stick skillet with the oil over moderate heat. Saute the sandwiches (in
batches if necessary) on both sides until they are golden. Transfer to
paper towels and keep warm. Quickly toss greens with Mustard Vinaigrette.
Cut croques monsieurs into 1/2-inch wide fingers. Mound dressed greens and
croque monsieurs attractively on 6 plates and garnish with crisp bacon or
pancetta lardons, if desired. Serve immediately. This recipe yields 6
servings.
