Serves 2

Difficulty Easy

Prep Time 15 minutes

Cooking Time 1 hour

Ingredients

50 g butter
2 T flour
1 cup beer
2 t wholegrain mustard
100 g mature Cheddar, grated, plus extra for topping
a pinch ground nutmeg
5 g fresh thyme, finely chopped plus a few sprigs
sea salt, to taste
freshly ground black pepper, to taste
4 slices Woolworths gluten-free spiced cranberry loaf

Method

1. Heat a pan and add the butter. When the butter has melted, whisk in the flour until a smooth paste, or roux, forms. Add the beer, whisking continuously, until smooth.

2. Stir in the mustard, cheese, nutmeg and thyme. Season to taste. Allow to bubble for 5 minutes, adding a touch more beer if the sauce gets too thick.

3. Turn on the oven’s grill. Place the bread in an ovenproof dish and smother with the cheesy sauce. Top with the remaining cheese and a few sprigs of thyme. Grill until golden brown and bubbling. Serve hot with an ice-cold beer.
