Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 25m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

4 soft French rolls or 4 Italian rolls
10 -12 ounces fresh mozzarella cheese, thickly sliced (make sure to use fresh)
8 ounces prosciutto, thinly sliced
1/4-1/2 cup fig jam or 1/4-1/2 cup fig preserves, to taste
soft butter

Steps:

  • Split each roll, and layer with the mozzarella and prosciutto.
  • Spread the top slices with the fig jam, then close up to form sandwiches.
  • Lightly butter the outside of each sandwich.
  • Heat a heavy nonstick skillet or panini press over med-high heat.
  • Place the sandwiches in the pan, working in two batches depending on the size of the pan.
  • Press the sandwiches or close the grill and brown, turning once or twice, until the bread is crisp and the cheese is melted; **you can press the sandwiches by weighting them with something heavy-such as a skillet or wide-bottomed saucepan.
  • Though the rolls start off as round, once pressed they are considerably flatter and can easily be turned, if careful.
  • Serve right away, cut on the diagonal.

Time 15m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

8 slices sourdough bread
4 tablespoons fig preserves
1/2 lb brie cheese
4 ounces prosciutto
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened

Steps:

  • Spread the fig preserves onto 4 slices of bread.
  • Cut the Brie into 8 long, thin slices.
  • Lay 2 slices of Brie over the preserves. (I have also used creme de brie since I don't really care for the rind of Brie. If you go this route you can just spread the creme de Brie over the other slices of bread.).
  • Arrange the prosciutto over the Brie.
  • Top with the remaining 4 slices of bread.
  • Spread half of the butter over the tops of the sandwiches and invert onto a hot skillet or pan.
  • Spread the remaining butter on the other side of the sandwiches.
  • Cook on the stove or in the oven, turning the sandwiches over once or twice, until the bread is golden brown and the Brie is melted.
  • Cut in half to serve.
