  • About

There are many versions of this well-known dish. You can experiment with all kinds of different cheeses and make people guess which you have used, if you want a talking point! I like to put it in the oven just long enough for the cheeses to melt slightly but still retain their different tastes.

Ingredients

Basic recipe

Method

Make the béchamel sauce, and flavour with the nutmeg and seasoning. Mix in half the grated parmesan or Cheddar cheese. Butter an ovenproof dish with 1 oz (25 g) of the butter.
