Ingredients
- 250g camembert (or brie, or other similar cheese)
- 1 tbsp vermouth (or dry white wine, or kirsch)
- 2 thyme sprigs
- pinch of dried chilli flakes
- crackers or toasted bread, to serve
Method
- Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6 or heat your air fryer to 180C for 4 mins.
- Unwrap the camembert from its packaging, then place back into its box. Tie string around the box to secure. If using a cheese that doesn’t have a box, put into a ramekin or other ovenproof dish.
- Slash the cheese a few times and top with vermouth, dry white wine or kirsch, thyme sprigs and a pinch of dried chilli flakes.
- Bake on a baking tray for 20 mins, or if using an air-fryer, cook for 15-20 mins until gooey. Serve with toasted bread or crackers for dipping.
