Stilton Rarebit

This recipe makes the most of leftover Stilton – but it could be made with any hard cheese (or even a mixture of all those end bits clinging to the rind).

Method

Pre-heat the grill to its highest setting and line either the grill pan or a baking tray with kitchen foil.

Put the cheese into a mixing bowl. Use a fork to finely crumble the cheese, then stir in the egg, shallot, Worcestershire sauce, mustard and sage (plus the walnuts, if using). Now spread the cheese mixture thickly over the bruschettini, making sure you take the mixture to the edge or they will burn. Sprinkle with cayenne pepper.

Then place the bruschettini on to the foil-lined grill pan or baking tray and grill for 2 minutes, until the cheese is golden and bubbling. Serve warm.
