Notes and tips

For a softer sandwich, lightly toast the bread.
The Boursin cheese can be replaced with seasoned cream cheese.
These sandwiches are easy to make the night before and keep well in the fridge.
Use leftover roast beef from the previous night's dinner to be more efficient.
Watercress adds a slight peppery kick that pairs well with the creamy Boursin.
