This is a delicious Valentine’s day treat and a great way to start off a romantic evening for two.
Serves 2
Preparation time: 5 minutes
Cooking time: 25 minutes
Ingredients:
- 1 garlic clove, peeled
- 75ml dry white wine
- 200g SuperValu Fresh Cut Ementhal Cheese, grated
- 200g SuperValu Supreme Gruyère Cheese, grated
- Pinch of nutmeg
- 2 tbsps of Kirch
- SuperValu Cooks Ingredients Sea salt
- SuperValu Cooks Ingredients Black pepper, freshly ground
- Serve with an assortment of gherkins, cured ham, pickled onions and
chunks of country loaf bread.
Method:
- Rub interior of a stainless steel saucepan with the garlic clove, then discard the garlic. Add white wine and bring to a simmer over a medium heat.
- Add in the Ementhal and Gruyère cheese and a pinch of nutmeg. Cook, stirring with a wooden spoon, until cheese melts.
- Stir the Kirch into the cheese mixture. Continue to stir and simmer until cheese mixture becomes smooth, about 5 minutes, then season with salt and freshly ground black pepper. If the fondue is too thick, add in a splash more white wine.
- To serve, transfer to a fondue pot and set over a flame. To eat, dip the gherkins, ham, pickled onions or chunks of bread with a fondue fork into the cheese fondue and enjoy!
Clodagh’s Top Tip:
Other cheeses that work really well in this dish include Fontina cheese and a good quality Irish cheddar.
