Frank Blandi’s Original Devonshire Sandwich

Cream Sauce

3/4 stick butter, melted
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 pound Cheddar cheese, grated
1 pint chicken broth
1 pint hot milk
1 teaspoon salt

Melt butter in deep pan and add flour, stirring constantly. Add chicken broth and then hot milk,
stirring all the while. Add cheese and salt. Bring to boil, then cook slowly for 20 minutes, still
stirring. Cool to lukewarm. Beat with wire whip until smooth before using. This makes enough
sauce for 6 Devonshire sandwiches.

For each sandwich

1 slice toast, crusts trimmed off
3 slices crisp bacon
5 thin slices cooked turkey breast
Cream Sauce, recipe above
Melted butter
Parmesan cheese and paprika

Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.

In each flat, individual ovenproof casserole dish, place 1 slice of toast and top with 3 slices bacon.
Add 5 thin slices of cooked turkey breast. Cover completely with cream sauce. Sprinkle with a
little melted butter, then with the combined Parmesan cheese and paprika. Bake 10 to 15 minutes or until golden brown.
