Method
Step 1
For the bechamel, melt the 13g butter in a saucepan, add the flour and stir continuously with a wooden spoon to make a paste. Cook for 2 mins, then gradually add the milk, stirring to a smooth sauce. Cook for 5-10 mins more, stirring, until thickened. Stir in the mustard, season to taste and set aside.
Step 2
Heat the haggis – either microwave it on high for 30 secs or fry in a pan until crumbly and piping hot.
Step 3
Butter the bread, then lay it butter-side down on a board. Spoon the haggis onto one slice, then top with two-thirds of the cheese and the ham. Top with the other slice of bread, butter-side up.
Step 4
Preheat the grill to high. Heat a frying pan over a medium-high heat, add the sandwich and fry for 2 mins on each side, pressing down with a heavy saucepan to seal the filling, until melted and golden.
Step 5
Smear a heaped tbsp of the bechamel over the sandwich, then sprinkle with the remaining cheese and grill until bubbling. Slice in half and serve.
