Notes and tips

For a more tender sandwich, lightly toast the bread.
Boursin cheese can be replaced with seasoned cream cheese.
These sandwiches are easy to prepare the day before and keep well in the refrigerator.
Use leftover roast beef from the previous night's dinner for efficiency.
The watercress adds a slight peppery kick that nicely complements the creamy Boursin.
