step by step

Method

  1. Wrap the Camembert in bacon

    • Cut the Camembert wheel in half horizontally or keep it whole, depending on the desired melt.
    • Wrap the bacon slices tightly around the Camembert, covering it completely.
    Step 1
  2. Bread the cheese

    • Coat the bacon-wrapped Camembert in the flour.
    • Dip it in the beaten egg, then roll it in the breadcrumbs.
    • Repeat the egg and breadcrumb coating for a thick, sealed crust.
    Step 2
  3. Chill the breaded cheese

    • Place the breaded Camembert in the fridge so the crust sets and the cheese firms up.
    Step 3
  4. Fry until golden

    • Heat the oil in a frying pan over medium heat.
    • Fry the breaded Camembert, turning regularly, until the crust is golden and crisp and the cheese flows inside.
    Step 4
  5. Serve

    • Drain on paper towel and serve immediately while the cheese is still flowing.
