Bahan-bahan

4 porsi

3 large eggs
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
Heaping ½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 cup all-purpose flour, (spooned into a measuring cup and leveled-off)
1¼ cups whole milk ((or substitute ¼ cup/60 ml heavy cream + 1 cup/240 ml skim milk))
2/3 cup grated Gruyere cheese
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh chives
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
5 slices (4 oz) thinly sliced ham, finely diced

Langkah-langkah

Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and set an oven rack in the middle position.
In a large bowl, whisk the eggs with the mustard, salt, and pepper. Whisk in the flour. Gradually add the milk, whisking until the batter is smooth. Stir in the cheese and chives.
Melt the butter in a 10-in (25-cm) cast iron or nonstick ovenproof pan over medium heat. Remove from the heat and swirl the butter around. Sprinkle the ham evenly around the pan. Pour the batter over the ham, then use a fork to be sure the ham is evenly distributed. Carefully transfer the pan to the preheated oven and bake for about 25 minutes. It will appear puffed straight out of the oven, but will quickly collapse. Cut the pancake into thin wedges and serve. (Remember that the pan is hot; I usually place a dishtowel or oven mitt over the handle as a reminder.)
