Istruzioni
- 1
Begin by preheating your oven to 180°C (350°F).

To assemble the Croque Madame, take two slices of white bread. On one slice, layer a slice of cooked ham and sprinkle grated Gruyère cheese on top. Place the second slice of bread on top to form a sandwich.
- 3
Spread a thin layer of bechamel sauce over the top slice of bread and sprinkle with a little more Gruyère cheese.

Place the sandwich on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for about 5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- 5
While the sandwich is baking, heat vegetable oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Peel the ripe plantains and cut them into bite-sized pieces.
- 6
Mix the ginger, cayenne pepper, and a pinch of salt in a small bowl. Toss the plantain pieces in the spice mixture until they are well coated.
- 7
Fry the spiced plantains in the hot oil until they are golden brown and crispy, about 4 minutes per side. Once done, remove them from the oil and place them on paper towels to drain excess oil. This is your Kelewele.

In another frying pan, fry the eggs to your preference (traditionally sunny-side up for a Croque Madame).
