Number Of Ingredients 9

Ingredients

2 red onions , thinly sliced
4 tbsp muscovado sugar
100ml balsamic vinegar
300g stilton , crumbled
200g parmesan (or vegetarian alternative), grated
2 tbsp crème fraîche
2 eggs , beaten
2 tsp wholegrain mustard
6 slices sourdough bread or German rye bread

Steps:

Put the onions, sugar and vinegar into a large pan on a low heat. Cook for about 25 mins, stirring now and again, until gloopy and sticky. Cool. Mix together the cheeses, crème fraîche, eggs and mustard with some seasoning, then chill.
To serve, heat the grill, lightly toast the bread and cut each slice into chunks. Put onto a baking sheet, spread a tsp of chutney on each chunk, then pile on the rarebit mixture - as much as the little squares can hold. Grill for 3-5 mins until golden brown and bubbling.
