Camembert Or Brie Bundle Recipes

Steps:

• Place brie on the pastry, draw a circle round it with a knife (about 1/2 inch larger than the cheese) and cut out the circle.
• Do the same again.
• Cut a strip of pastry about 1/2" wide that's long enough to wrap around the brie.
• Place the brie on one circle of pastry and tuck the sides up, place another circle on top of the brie and tuck the sides down, then wrap the pastry strip round it to tidy it all up.
• You can press the edges down with a fork if you want it to look REALLY neat, then decorate it with pastry scraps cut into nice shapes.
• Brush it over with a beaten egg so it will have a nice glaze when cooked.
• Bake at 180 degrees for around 20-25 minutes.
• Let it settle for around 20-30 mins then cut into thin wedges and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325.
• Open crescent roll dough, take half of roll and pinch seams together to make one solid square piece. (put other half aside for another use). Place in oven-proof dish.
• Wrap cheese in crescent roll,bringing the ends on top of cheese and pinching the ends neatly.
• Melt butter in sauce pan.
• When melted, add crushed garlic cloves, and sautee for 5 minutes. (Do not burn Garlic)
• Add honey to butter and garlic and stir until blended through.
• Pour butter/honey over wrapped cheese.
• Bake for 13 minutes, or until a nice golden brown.
• Enjoy on crackers or toast rounds.

Steps:

• Dip the wedge of brie or camembert in milk and dredge in flour.
• Then dip in egg and breadcrumbs.
• Let cheese'sit' for 10-15 minutes to allow coating to set.
• Melt butter in a large skillet.
• When hot, add as many brie/camembert slices as will fit without crowding.
• Fry until golden-brown, turn over carefully and fry on other side.
• Put a handful of the lettuce chiffonade on each serving plate.
• Centre a golden brie/camembert slice on the plate.
• Top with a spoonful of fruit chutney or preserves (or serve the chutney on the side); Cranberry Sauce is WONDERFUL with this!
• Serve immediately with plenty of crusty bread to spread the molten cheese on.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Heat olive oil and cracked pepper over low heat. Turn off heat and let infuse for 10 minutes.
• Place sliced cheese on half of the bread slices (making sure the cheese comes to the edge of the crust). Place top slice on each sandwich and put them together so they are crust to crust. Cover all the sandwiches with a layer of plastic wrap and place a medium cutting board on top of sandwiches to gently weigh them down for 15 minutes.
• Using a pastry brush, thoroughly brush surface of both faces of the sandwich with the pepper oil.
• Preheat a Panini griddle on low or a medium saute pan over low heat. Wipe surface with a little oil. Place sandwiches in griddle or pan and cook until lightly browned, 2-3 minutes per side until cheese is melted. Keep heat low so bread doesn't burn.
• Serve with tomato soup.
