I got this recipe from a Nigel Slater cook book but when I made it I altered it to include chopped garlic as I think it makes it nicer. Really nice although Camembert can be a bit smelly!

I an so stuffed from feasting on this that it is amazing I can actually mange to type this review. My supermarket threw in a box of Camembert with my grocery delivery this week as a holiday gift. I had never cooked with one before but decided tonight was the night and this was the recipe. I was right! This was very easy to put together and went beautifully with a plate of continental meats and bread. Fondue in a box

This is absolutely AMAZING!!! Make sure to serve it hot, though; it was ready earlier than I expected it to be and so it wasn't bubbling when we ate it (we decided to reheat it). I put a tiny bit of extra wine and some olive oil about 10 minutes before it was done. Thank you for the recipe! Will definitely make it again.
