Cheese soufflé

 Makes 1 medium-sized souffle or 2 smaller ones.



Ingredients:
  • 350ml milk
  • 100g goat cheese
  • 100g ricotta cheese
  • 50g flour
  • 20g butter
  • 3 eggs
  • 1t mustard
  • black pepper
  • breadcrumbs

Method:

Prepare a bechamel type sauce by melting the butter in a pot with all the cheese, mustard and black pepper. Progressively stir in the flour and milk until it thickens. Pour the mixture into a bowl and let it cool down. Separate the yolks and whites of the eggs, and mix the yolks into the bowl with the mixture (using a stick mixer makes obtaining a smooth result easier). In a stand mixer beat the egg whites stiff.

 
Carefully and progressively fold in the egg whites into the thick sauce. Butter a mould and layer breadcrumbs. Fill it with the mixture.


Preheat the oven to 180C. Before baking, run a knife along the rim of the dish. This will create a top hat effect, preventing the souffle from puffing over the edges. Bake for 30min.
