Welsh Rarebit

Welsh Rarebit is a savory dish made from melted cheese, often Cheddar, on toasted bread, and a variety of other ingredients such as mustard, egg, or bacon. Here is one take on this classic.

  1. Lightly toast the bread
  2. Place on a baking tray, and spread with butter.
  3. Add the grated Cheddar cheese and 2 tablespoons of beer to a saucepan. Place the saucepan over a medium heat, and stir the cheese continuously until it has melted. Add a teaspoon of wholegrain mustard and grind in a little pepper. Keep stirring.
  4. When thick and smooth, pour over each piece of toast spreading it to the edges to stop the toast from burning.
  5. Place under the grill for a couple of minutes or until golden brown.
