Ingredients
-
generous wedge brie cheese (sometimes, I buy those very small rounds of brie or camembert and serve one or half per person) or camembert cheese, for each person you're planning to serve (sometimes, I buy those very small rounds of brie or camembert and serve one or half per person)
-
milk
-
flour
-
butter
-
lettuce leaf, chiffonade (lettuce cut in thin, strips to make an attractive plating)
-
fruit chutney or preserves
-
crusty bread
-
1 egg (or 2 or 3 - again depending on how many people you're serving this to)
-
plain breadcrumbs
Instructions
- Dip the wedge of brie or camembert in milk and dredge in flour.
- Then dip in egg and breadcrumbs.
- Let cheese'sit' for 10-15 minutes to allow coating to set.
- Melt butter in a large skillet.
- When hot, add as many brie/camembert slices as will fit without crowding.
- Fry until golden-brown, turn over carefully and fry on other side.
- Put a handful of the lettuce chiffonade on each serving plate.
- Centre a golden brie/camembert slice on the plate.
- Top with a spoonful of fruit chutney or preserves (or serve the chutney on the side); Cranberry Sauce is WONDERFUL with this!
- Serve immediately with plenty of crusty bread to spread the molten cheese on.
- Enjoy!
