A Fancied-Up S.O.S.-Inspired Tartine
Ingredients
- 1 small onion(s) chopped
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons flour
- 1 cup(s) milk
- 1 cup(s) gruyere, grated
- 3 slices of thinly shaved pastrami
- 1 thick slice(s) tasted sourdough bread
- 1 teaspoon(s) chopped chives
- 1/2 teaspoon(s) paprika
Instructions
- First, make a quick Mornay sauce by sautéing a chopped onion with 2 tablespoons of butter.
- Once the onions are translucent, add in 2 tablespoons of flour.
- When the mixture thickens, add a cup of milk. As the milk begins to simmer, it will thicken.
- Turn the heat down to low and add a cup of grated gruyere—stirring until it melts and is smooth.
- To serve, lay thinly shaved pastrami on a thick slice of toasted sourdough, then pour the Mornay on top. Top with chopped chives and sprinkle with paprika.
