Ingredients
  

  • 6 dinner rolls cut in half horizontally to make mini buns
  • 3 tablespoons fig or black currant jam
  • 2 ounces high-quality deli ham thinly sliced
  • 2 ounces Comté thinly sliced

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the broiler. Place the buns, cut sides up, on a baking sheet and broil 2-3 minutes, or until lightly toasted.
  • Spread each bun (cut side) lightly with jam. Set the top buns aside and reserve. Arrange the ham and Comté on the bottom buns. Broil 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese is melted. Top with the reserved buns and serve.

Try the Herbed Mayonnaise and Arugula variation to switch things up.
