Hot Sandwiches - {Emparedados Calientes}

Recipe Ingredients

8		Bread, slightly stale - 3 to 4 days old
1 cup	237ml	Milk
2		Eggs - beaten
8		Lean ham
1/4 cup	59ml	Olive oil
		Salt and pepper - to taste

Recipe Instructions

Put milk in a shallow dish and with the aid of a fork, dip bread in it until bread is dampened but not soaked. Fold each piece of bread over a slice of ham and put all the sandwiches between two cutting boards under a heavy weight for half an hour. (If you have a stone mortar, that is a very effective weight.) Dip the sandwiches in egg beaten with salt and pepper and fry in hot olive oil until well browned. Serve hot.
