We always eat this in the traditional Scottish style--over buttered toast--rather than the English or Welsh versions. Very yummy stuff. For the toast, use about 4 slices of a hearty, whole wheat bread.

SERVES 2 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

9 ounces grated cheese (Chesire, Lancashire or Smoked Applewood Cheddar, latter is really good)
6 tablespoons beer
1 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
worcestershire sauce

Directions

1
Heat the cheese, beer and butter over low heat, stirring, until it melts.
2
Add mustard and a splash of Worcestershire sauce.
3
Meanwhile, be toasting bread.
4
Pour sauce over toast and serve.

We really liked this. I used an aged English cheddar for the cheese, and a mild beer. A tablespoon of dijon seemed huge when I scooped it out - so I only added 1/2 T. We served over whole wheat toast; the kids and I loved the sauce but not the toast so I really think this deserves a better toast such as a crusty white bread.

This makes a very rich tasty savoury cheese sauce (albeit a very thick one!)I used newcastle brown ale in the sauce and the taste of it really came through, I wouldn't recommened using lager or a cheap beer as it would detract from the dish. I served mine on plain wholemeal but I think it would be amazing over baked beans or a jacket potato. I did find that a portion of the sauce was too rich and much I think this would better serve three. This is still a keeper though!
