- 1
Prepare the filling: In a bowl, mix the sour cream or crème fraîche with the Dijon mustard, a pinch of nutmeg, and pepper. This creamy base will be the flavorful binder for your wrap.
- 2
Place a tortilla flat on your work surface. Imagine it divided into 4 equal quarters. Spread one tablespoon of the cream-mustard mixture only on the bottom-left quarter.
- 3
Place one to two slices of ham on the same quarter, then cover generously with a mixture of the three shredded cheeses (mozzarella, Gruyère, and Comté).
- 4
Fold the tortilla in half upward (the filled quarter toward the top), then fold again to the right to form a thick, four-layered triangle. Press down lightly to seal.
- 5
Heat a non-stick skillet or crepe pan over medium heat with a drizzle of olive oil or the butter. Place the folded wrap in the pan and grill for 3 to 4 minutes on each side, pressing down with a spatula, until golden brown and crispy.
- 6
Watch the cooking carefully: the cheese should melt and begin to ooze slightly from the edges. Flip carefully halfway through for even browning.
- 7
Remove from heat and let rest for 1 minute before cutting in half to reveal the long-awaited cheese pull. Serve immediately accompanied by a green salad or raw vegetables.
💡 Chef's Tip
For an even more spectacular cheese pull, add a thin layer of mozzarella directly onto the hot pan before placing the wrap—the cheese will caramelize under the tortilla to create a crispy, frico-style crust. Always use a lid during the first minute of cooking to help the cheese melt from the inside before browning the exterior.
