The Frenchee (sandwich) hails from the great state of Nebraska. First created by King's Food Host Restaurant which is no longer in business. Here is an artery-cloggin' version that my dad loves and makes when my mom isn't looking.

CHEESE FRENCHEE



Cheese Frenchee image

I'm originally from Nebraska, and when I was a kid, there was a chain of restaurants called, "Kings Food Host". They made a sandwich that was incredible, called a "Cheese Frenchee". The actual recipe is a secret (in fact, even people that worked there say they didn't know ALL the ingredients). I searched, and experimented, and...

Number Of Ingredients 9

6 slice white bread
6 slice american cheese
miracle whip or mayo
1 egg
1/2 c milk
3/4 c flour
1 tsp salt
kellogg's corn flake crumbs or very finely ground cracker crumbs
oil for frying

Steps:

  • 1. Make 3 sandwiches using 2 slices of bread spread with Miracle Whip or mayo (Kings used Miracle Whip), and 2 slices of American cheese for each sandwich. Cut the crusts off, and then slice each sandwich diagonally, to make 4 triangles.
  • 2. In a small bowl, combine the egg, milk, flour & salt and whisk to make a batter.
  • 3. Dip each triangle in the batter, covering completely. Let the excess drip off, and then coat with crumbs.
