Crispy Baked Boursin cheese with chilli honey
Description
Crispy Baked Boursin cheese is made by coating soft Boursin cheese rounds first in flour, then in beaten egg, and finally in seasoned panko breadcrumbs that form a golden, crunchy crust after baking. The cheese is baked at a high temperature until crisp on the outside while maintaining its creamy texture inside.
Accompanying the cheese is a drizzle of honey blended with finely chopped chillies, providing a contrast of sweetness and heat that complements the richness of the cheese. Toasted ciabatta slices serve as a vehicle for the cheese and honey combination, adding a crunchy, oily counterpoint.
This dish is best served immediately while the cheese is warm and the coat stays crisp, making it suitable as an appetizer or snack. The pairing of spicy-sweet honey and creamy cheese creates a layered flavor experience with diverse textures.
Ingredients
- 150 g Boursin cheese
- 2 tbsp flour
- 1 egg beaten
- 1 cup panko breadcrumbs seasoned with salt and pepper
For serving
- ½ cup honey
- 1 chilli finely chopped
- 8 liced ciabatta bread
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 200°C/390°F.
- Place flour, beaten egg and seasoned panko breadcrumbs into three separate bowls.
- Coat the Boursin first in the flour, making sure the cheese is completely coated. Dust off the excess then dip in the egg, once again ensuring it's well coated and finally coat in the panko.
- Place the crumbed cheese in a parchment-lined baking dish.
- Place in a hot oven and allow to bake for 10-15 minutes until golden brown and crisp.
- While the Boursin bakes, mix the honey with the finely diced chillies.
- Thinly slice the ciabatta and place on a baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and bake until crisp and golden on both sides.
- Once the cheese has baked, remove from the oven.
- Place on a serving platter or board alongside the chilli honey and ciabatta toasts.
- Serve immediately.
