Best 4 Fried Brie With Cranberry Sauce Recipes

BAKED BRIE WITH CRANBERRY CHUTNEY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Cut the round of Brie in half horizontally, as if splitting a hamburger bun. Lift the top off the Brie and spread the Cranberry Chutney over the bottom half. Replace the top.
• Lay the sheet of puff pastry on a lightly floured work surface. Roll slightly with a rolling pin until the puff pastry is 3 to 4 inches wider in all directions than the round of Brie. Place the filled Brie in the center of the puff pastry.
• Trim 1 inch from each corner of the puff pastry and reserve for another use or to decorate the top of the Brie. Fold in the 4 corners of the puff pastry so they meet in the center of the Brie. Lightly brush the dough where the pieces meet with the egg. Fold the remaining edges into the center so that the Brie is tightly wrapped.
• Flip the Brie onto the prepared baking sheet seam-side down. Decorate the top of the round with the remaining puff pastry, if desired. Refrigerate 1 hour. (The filled, wrapped Brie can be prepared up to 1 day in advance.)
• Bake until golden brown, about 35 minutes. Cool on the pan at least 10 minutes, then use a large spatula to transfer to a serving platter. Serve with the remaining Cranberry Chutney, nuts, dried fruit and crackers.
• Combine the cranberries, apple, sugar, cinnamon, ginger, cloves, orange zest and juice and 1/4 cup water in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer until thickened, about 20 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve warm or chilled. Keeps refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks.

DEEP FRIED BRIE

Steps:

• In a small bowl, whisk the egg with some salt and pepper using a fork. Place the bread crumbs in a separate bowl. Dip the cubes of Brie into the egg, then roll in breadcrumbs until evenly coated and well covered. Place the cheese cubes on a tray, and refrigerate for about 20 minutes, to firm up.
• Heat oil in deep-fryer or heavy saucepan to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Fry the cheese cubes for 3 to 5 minutes, until deep golden brown. Remove with a slotted spoon, and drain on paper towels. Serve warm with cranberry sauce for dipping. You can also make these before your guests arrive, and keep them in a warm oven.

FRIED BRIE WITH CRANBERRY SAUCE

Steps:

• Place cranberries and water in a sauce pan and bring to a boil.
• Cover and simmer for 10-15 minutes.
• Remove from heat and stir in the sugar or Splenda.
• Return the pan to the heat and simmer for 10-15 minutes more.
• Pour into a serving dish, keep warm.
• Sift the flour onto a plate and coat the cheese on all sides, dip into the beaten egg, then coat with the bread crumbs.
• Heat oil in a deep fryer to 350 degrees F, deep fry the brie for 1- 2 minutes on both sides or until the bread crumbs are golden.
• Drain well.
• Serve the fried brie while still hot with the warm cranberry sauce.
• NOTE: I use Splenda and it works fine in this recipe.

BAKED BRIE WITH CRANBERRY SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 200ºC/400ºF.
• Cut the cheese into quarters.
• Dip each piece into the flour to give a light coating, then dip into beaten egg and then the crumbs so all surfaces are coated.
• Repeat the egg and crumb dipping and then place cheese wedges onto a baking sheet.
• Bake for 12 minutes and serve hot with cranberry sauce and a few salad leaves for garnish.
