![]() Looking for a tempting appetizer to wow your guests over the festive period? My Chilli Pecan Camembert (borrowed from the fantastic people at The Pampered Chef) is simple and utterly delicious. The taste-bud tingling treat will not fail to impress: Chilli-Pecan Camembert Ingredients: 50g pecan halves, coarsely chopped 1 fresh jalapeno chili pepper, seeded and finely chopped 70g apricot jam 1 (250g) round Camembert cheese ½ large French baguette Olive oil for spraying Directions: 1. Preheat oven to 190oC/Gas 5. Coarsely chop pecans and finely chop chili. In a small bowl, combine chili and jam, and mix well. 2. Cut Camembert in half horizontally. Place one half of Camembert, cut-side up, onto a baking tray or stone. Spread half of the apricot jam mixture evenly over bottom half of Camembert. Top with half of the pecans and the remaining half of Camembert, cut-side up. Spread remaining apricot jam mixture over Camembert; sprinkle with remaining pecans. 3. Cut baguette on a bias into 24 5mm-thick slices. Arrange baguette slices, slightly overlapping, around Camembert; lightly spray with olive oil. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until baguette slices are crisp and golden on top and Camembert begins to soften. Remove from oven; let stand 5 minutes before serving.
