Observations

Can we use another cheese for this croque-monsieur?

Of course you can! You can replace the grated cheese with Comté, Cheddar or even a blend of several cheeses for a gourmet touch.

How can I prevent the croque-monsieur from becoming too dry in the Air Fryer?

Make sure you coat the top with béchamel sauce and don't let it cook too long. A cooking time of around 10 minutes is generally sufficient for a soft, golden croque-monsieur.

Can they be baked in the oven?

Yes, place them on a baking tray lined with baking paper and bake at 370°F/190°C for around 15 minutes, until golden brown and au gratin.

How long can I keep croque-monsieur in the fridge?

You can keep uncooked croque-monsieur in the fridge for around 24 hours, wrapped tightly in cling film. Once cooked, they can be kept in the fridge for 1 day, and reheated for a few minutes in the Air Fryer or oven before serving.

Can croque-monsieur be frozen?

Yes, you can freeze croque-monsieur before baking. Wrap them individually in cling film or slip them into a freezer bag. To cook them, simply put them directly into the Air Fryer or oven, without defrosting them first, but with a slightly longer cooking time.
