How to Make Ham And Swiss In A Bun

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a small saucepan over medium heat.
  3. Add 8 ounces of sliced mushrooms and 1/2 cup of chopped onions. Sauté until tender and all mushroom liquid has evaporated, about 5-7 minutes.
  4. Whisk in 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour until smooth.
  5. Gradually whisk in 1 cup of milk until smooth and no lumps remain.
  6. Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring constantly, until thickened, about 2-3 minutes.
  7. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  8. While the sauce simmers, prepare the sandwiches. Slice 4 hamburger buns in half.
  9. Layer each bottom bun with: 1 slice of ham (approx. 4 oz total), 1/2 slice of Swiss cheese, 1/4 of the mushroom sauce, 1/2 slice of Swiss cheese, and 1 slice of ham (approx. 4 oz total).
  10. Replace the top bun halves.
  11. Place the sandwiches on a baking sheet and bake for 15 minutes, or until heated through and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
