This next recipe is stolen from my husband. In fact he made it for me as a starter when he was wooing me- and I was certainly wooed! These are to die for and we have made them over and over for dinner parties as starters or just as snacks. And they are relatively easy too! The photo quality of these are a bit iffy- had to use photos taken way back when and via Facebook so please excuse!
Take puff pastry (pre rolled stuff works great) and shape into whatever shape you desire. About 1/2 cm from the edge, carefully indent a line all the way around and then with a fork, prick the inside gently. This is to make it easy to remove the top and innards ready to fill with yummyness! Then pop it into the oven to rise. I haven't a photo of the next step but also, you will want to caramelise some red onion by frying it with brown sugar until it is sweet and soft. |
Then pop it back in the oven to slightly brown the cheese and to reheat. Finish with a little black pepper to taste and serve whilst warm! I can never get enough of this as a starter which is why I recommend it as a snack instead- that way you can have as much as you want and not have to worry about two more courses!
