Welsh Rarebit

Ingredients

45g 1½ oz. Cheddar cheese, grated
1 egg yolk
1 tsp cream or milk
2-3 drops Worcestershire sauce (or to taste)
1 English muffin, split and toasted
Peas, pea pods, and carrot, for garnish
1 black olive, halved, for garnish
Chives, for garnish
 

Method

Preheat the grill on high. Mash cheese, egg yolk, cream, and Worcestershire sauce together in a bowl. Season with pepper to taste.

Spread the cheese mixture over the cut sides of the toasted muffin, spreading to the edges. Grill the muffin 7 to 8 centimeters from the heat source for 3 to 4 minutes, until the cheese is golden and bubbling. Don't let the muffin halves get too close to the heat or they may brown too quickly.

Decorate the muffin with peas for eyes, pea pods for ears, an olive for a nose, chives for whiskers, and a carrot for fun.
