Cornish rarebit

To plate

  • 1 loaf of bread, sliced

Method

1
Grate the cheddar and place in a saucepan with the beer over a medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the cheese melts and the mixture starts to bubble
2
Stir in the flour, breadcrumbs, and mustard and continue cooking until the mixture comes cleanly away from the sides of the pan and forms a ball. Remove from the heat and leave to cool
3
Once cool, beat in the egg yolks until you have a smooth mixture, then the rarebit is ready to use. Spread across some slices of bread and pop under the grill until bubbling. Cut into soldiers and serve immediately
