Ingredients
Serves 4
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 2 shallots, finely chopped
- 125ml double cream
- small bunch chives, snipped
- 1-2 large baguettes sliced
- 2 tomatoes, sliced
- 10-12 slices leftover brie or camembert
- 4 slices Serrano ham or prosciutto leaves, to serve
Method
- Heat 1 tsp olive oil in a saucepan and gently cook the chopped shallots for 2 mins until soft but not coloured
- Pour in the cream, bring it to a simmer, then reduce by about half
- The cream will look like a thick sauce at this point
- Stir in the chives
- Heat grill to high
- Brush the remaining olive oil over the bread and grill on both sides until toasted
- Top each slice with some tomato, then cheese, then Serrano ham, and finally spread over about 1 tbsp of the thickened cream to cover the ham
- Place back under the hot grill until the cream starts to colour and glaze and the cheese has begun to melt
- Serve with rocket leaves scattered over the top
