Ingredients
  

  • 210 g cottage cheese
  • 4 eggs
  • 1 tbsp ground psyllium husk powder
  • 1 tbsp butter
  • 140 g smoked deli ham
  • 55 g sliced cheddar cheese
  • 55 g finely chopped red onion optional

For serving

  • 100 g lettuce

Instructions
 

  • Whisk the eggs in a bowl. Mix in the cottage cheese. Add ground psyllium husk powder while stirring to incorporate it smoothly, without lumps. Let the mixture rest for 5 minutes until the batter has set.
  • Place a frying pan over medium heat. Add a generous amount of butter and fry the batter like small pancakes for a couple of minutes on each side, until they are golden. Make two pancakes per serving.
  • Assemble a sandwich with sliced ham and cheese between two of the warm pancakes. Add finely chopped onion on top.
  • Serve the Croque Monsieur warm with leafy greens.

Notes

Put a fried egg on top, and you’ll have a Croque Madame! Fancy sounding and equally delicious.
