A delightful twist on the classic Monte Cristo sandwich, featuring a triple cheese blend and a crispy golden batter.
Lay out three slices of bread.
Using fresh bread ensures a better texture for the sandwich.
Place a slice of ham and cheddar cheese on one slice of bread and a slice of ham and mozzarella cheese on another.
Layering the cheese and ham evenly helps the sandwich cook uniformly.
Stack the two slices with fillings and top with the third slice of bread.
Secure the sandwich with toothpicks to keep it intact while frying.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the egg, water, salt, sugar, flour, and baking powder until smooth.
Ensure the batter is lump-free for an even coating.
Dip the sandwich into the batter, coating all sides evenly.
Let excess batter drip off to avoid a thick coating.
Heat oil in a frying pan and carefully place the sandwich in the hot oil.
Maintain medium heat to cook the sandwich evenly without burning.
Fry until golden brown on all sides, then remove and place on a paper towel to drain excess oil.
Turning the sandwich gently prevents it from breaking apart.
Let the sandwich cool slightly, then remove the toothpicks and cut into quarters.
Cutting the sandwich into smaller portions makes it easier to serve and enjoy.
Sprinkle with powdered sugar and serve with raspberry jam on the side.
The sweet topping balances the savory flavors of the sandwich.
