The Cheese Soufflé is a savoury treat, which you will devour with delight! A combination of eggs, cheese and milk gives this soufflé a fabulously cheesy texture, while mustard paste and a dash of pepper give it an irresistible flavour.
Remember that each serving of the soufflé has to be baked in an individual container, as it has to be served in the same container – you can’t unmould it. Serve the Cheese Soufflé immediately after baking.
Serve with French Beans with Sesame-Seeds or Pasta Salad with Basil Vinaigrette and Melba Toast .
