BENNIGAN'S MONTE CRISTO SANDWICH
My local Bennigans closed down over a year ago. I used to treat myself to my favorite sandwich of all time - The Monte Cristo. No one made it like they did! Had a craving for one and decided to do some research online and found the recipe! I used honey cured meats instead of just the regular meats and it came out AMAZING!!...

Steps:
- 1. Separate the 9 pieces of bread on a cutting board.
- 2. Put 3 slices of bread aside.
- 3. Using the remaining 6 slices: On 3 pieces place one slice Turkey and one slice Swiss cheese. On the other 3 slices of bread; place one slice Ham and one slice American cheese.
- 4. Using the 3 slices of bread you set aside earlier; layer the sandwich. (Should be Turkey/Swiss, bread, then Ham/American layer) Will be a triple decker sandwich. Will make 3 sandwiches.
- 5. Place a tooth pick in each corner of the sandwiches so the sandwiches will hold together. (4 per sandwich - Total of 12 toothpicks).
- 6. Crack egg in a medium/large mixing bowl. Add water and beat together until fully mixed.
- 7. Add salt,sugar, baking powder, and flour and stir until batter is smooth.
- 8. Dip sandwich in batter. Carefully cover all sides and surfaces. (Make sure every surface of the sandwich is covered in batter or it wont fry right)
- 9. Carefully place in hot oil.
- 10. Fry until golden brown (usually 3-5 minutes per side).
- 11. Once it is golden brown remove from hot oil and place on a paper towel to drain off excess oil.
- 12. Let cool for a few minutes.
- 13. Remove the toothpicks.
- 14. Slice in half, or into fourths.

[email protected]I had some trouble getting the sandwich to cook evenly. The outside was crispy, but the inside was still a little bit raw. I'll try cooking it for a shorter amount of time next time.
