incredible crunchy and cheesy Croque Monsieur and Croque Madame

These gorgeous French cheese and ham toasted sandwiches originated in Paris around 1910 and are to this day a staple of cafés and bistros around the world. For me these hold their own against the American Grilled cheese and even the amazing Welsh Rarebit.
I think the addition of bechamel sauce elevates this snack to another level of yumminess.
The Croque Monsieur translates roughly to Mr crunchy or crispy and the addition of a fried egg converts it into Croque Madame or Mrs crunchy.
