Savoyarde fondue recipe

Savoyarde fondue

Nothing says blowout like a cheese fondue and the depth of flavour in this one is provided by the Emmental and Gruyere cheese. Consistency is key - keep stirring until it thickens - with a crusty baguette on standby so the dipping can commence.

    Method

    1. Rub the inside of a large, heavy based saucepan with the crushed garlic clove, then discard. Combine the wine and cornflour in the saucepan and whisk to combine. Bring to a boil over a moderate heat, then reduce to a simmer and stir in the grated cheeses.
    2. Stir continuously until the cheese is smooth and melted, then season with the nutmeg and black pepper. Continue to cook over a low heat for 12-15 minutes until the fondue has thickened to the right consistency.
    3. Transfer to a fondue pot and set over a portable flame to keep warm. Garnish with another small pinch of nutmeg and serve with the pieces of cubed baguette.
