Apple And Stilton Welsh Rarebit Bites Recipes

STILTON & CHUTNEY RAREBIT BITES

Steps:

• Put the onions, sugar and vinegar into a large pan on a low heat. Cook for about 25 mins, stirring now and again, until gloopy and sticky. Cool. Mix together the cheeses, crème fraîche, eggs and mustard with some seasoning, then chill.
• To serve, heat the grill, lightly toast the bread and cut each slice into chunks. Put onto a baking sheet, spread a tsp of chutney on each chunk, then pile on the rarebit mixture - as much as the little squares can hold. Grill for 3-5 mins until golden brown and bubbling.

STILTON AND WALNUT WELSH RAREBIT - BLUE CHEESE ON TOAST

Steps:

• Pre-heat the grill the the highest setting and line a grill pan with kitchen foil.
• Put the cheese into a mixing bowl and mash with a fork.
• Add the cream or creme fraiche, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, black pepper, salt, (optional as the cheese is already quite salty) & the walnut pieces.
• Mix well & set aside.
• Place all the slices of bread on to the lined grill pan and toast until just golden brown.
• Take out and spread the UNTOASTED side with butter.
• Spread the cheese mixture over the top ensuring it is spread to the edges, otherwise they will burn!
• Sprinkle with the Cayenne pepper.
• Place under the grill and grill for about 2-4 minutes until the cheese is melted, bubbling & tinged with brown.
• Serve 2 slices per person with a crisp seasonal salad and a good glass or two of Red wine!
• The ultimate supper dish!
• If you wish to serve these as aperitif nibbles, stamp out rounds from the slices of bread and continue to assemble & grill as above. Serves about 8 people that way.
