SWISS RACLETTE



Swiss Raclette image

An amazingly delicious meal cooked on a raclette, Originally used in the ski lodges after a day of skiing the raclette usually sits on the middle of the table for everyone to use. No! its not a fondue! this has loads of vegetables, and some meat which you cook in small dishes on top of the raclette, usually with some seasonings as well. Once cooked you put a layer of cheese over the top and slide it back under the raclette grill. Once the cheese has melted just serve over a couple of small cooked new potatoes, then you load up and start cooking again... a great social meal with a good glass of wine!

SWISS RACLETTE

I tried this for the first time last summer in Switzerland and fell in love! It is delicious!! I know they sell Raclette pans but this is a version that's easy to do at home with the equipment you already have. Notes: Any smooth-melting cheese - cheddar, fontal, fontina, gouda, gruyère, jack, Swiss, taleggio, or teleme, even brie - can stand in for raclette. You can bake or boil potatoes.
