Pan Fried Camembert Sandwich Recipes

PAN-FRIED CAMEMBERT SANDWICH

Steps:

• Butter the bread. Put a wedge of camembert or brie on the unbuttered side of one slice of bread. Top with a spoonful of cranberry sauce. Drizzle with a few drops of balsamic vinegar, if you have some.
• Put the second slice of bread on top, buttered side out. Fry in a hot non-stick pan, pressing down with a fish slice, for a minute or two on each side, until golden brown and melting. Cut in half and eat straightaway.

FILET MIGNON SANDWICH WITH ONIONS, CAMEMBERT, FRIED EGG AND CHIMICHURRI

Steps:

• For the chimichurri: In a blender combine the oil, garlic, chiles, cilantro, onions, parsley and oregano. Season with salt, then stir in the vinegar. Just before serving, taste and season with more salt if needed.
• For the salad: Add the tomatoes and onions to a bowl. Toss with some olive oil and the vinegar. Season with salt and garnish with the basil.
• For the sandwiches: Coat a large saute pan set over medium heat with olive oil and toss in the onions. Season with salt and the crushed red pepper, and increase the heat to medium-high. Cook the onions until soft, aromatic and lightly browned, 12 to 15 minutes. Transfer to a small bowl and reserve. Wipe out the pan with a paper towel, but don't wash it.
• Preheat the broiler.
• Sprinkle the steaks generously with salt. Coat the pan used for the onions with olive oil and place over high heat. You want to get it really hot; the oil should almost be smoking. Working in batches so you don't crowd the pan, cook the steak slices for about 1 minute on each side. Reserve the cooked slices and repeat until all the steak is cooked.
• Cut the rolls in half, scoop out the middle and toast under the broiler.
• Divide the steak evenly among the rolls. Arrange the sauteed onions in an even layer on top of the steak, then drizzle the meat with the chimichurri. Place 2 slices of Camembert on each sandwich and heat under the broiler until the cheese is really nice and melty, 1 to 2 minutes.
• While the cheese melts, coat a nonstick saute pan with olive oil and heat over medium heat. Crack the eggs into the pan and fry until the whites are cooked through but the yolks are still runny.
• Top each sandwich with a sunny-side up egg and finish with a big drizzle of the chimichurri. Close the sandwich, squish it, get lots of napkins, and eat the deliciousness. Serve with the tomato and onion salad.

GRILLED CAMEMBERT SANDWICH

Steps:

• Spread the Camembert cheese evenly onto one slice of bread. Spread a thin layer of cranberry sauce over the cheese. Drizzle with a few drops of balsamic vinegar, and top with the remaining slice of bread. Spread butter on the outer sides of each slice of bread.
• Heat a skillet over medium heat. Fry the sandwich for a few minutes on each side, just until golden brown. Slice in half, and eat straight away!

DEEP-FRIED CAMEMBERT AND CRANBERRY SAUCE

Steps:

• Freeze Camembert cheese for 30 minutes.
• Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Pour flour into a bowl. Beat eggs and milk together in a separate bowl. Pour bread crumbs into a third bowl.
• Remove cheese from the freezer and cut each round into 6 wedges. Roll each wedge in flour and dip into the egg-milk mixture. Press each wedge into bread crumbs until evenly coated.
• Fry each breaded wedge in the hot oil until bread crumbs are browned, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer fried cheese to a paper towel-lined plate using a slotted spoon. Serve cranberry sauce on the side.
