Bavarian Cheese Balls
Ingredients:
9 oz Camembert or Brie,
2 tablespoons butter (softened),
flour for coating,
1 egg beaten,
1 tablespoon fine bread crumbs for coating, butter for frying,
4 canned pear halves,
4 cocktail cherries
Mash the cheese with a fork and mix well with the butter. With wet hands divide the cheese into quarters and shape into 4 balls. Chill well. Roll each ball in flour, then beaten egg, and finally the bread crumbs, make sure the balls are coated all over. Heat the butter in a skillet and fry the balls until golden brown all over. Arrange the pear halves on a plate, place a cheese ball on each and decorate with the cherries.
This recipe reminds me of how my mother
used to make a simple pear, cottage cheese,
grated cheddar on lettuce for a simple dessert...refreshing!
