Ingredients

For the mini "Fondue Parmesan"

  • 125 mL (1/2 cup) Alexis de Portneuf Cantonnier
  • 500 mL (2 cups) Saputo Mozzarellissima cheese
  • 500 mL (2 cups) Saputo Shredded Parmesan cheese
  • 375 mL (1 ½ cups) 35% cooking cream
  • 1 egg yolk
  • 125 mL(1/2 cup) all-purpose flour
  • 60 mL (1/4 cup) unsalted butter
  • Salt & pepper

 

For the breading

  • 125 mL (1/2 cup) all-purpose flour
  • 2 eggs (lightly beaten)
  • 250 mL (1 cup) seasoned breadcrumbs
  • 500 mL (2 cups) oil

 

For the cranberry sauce

  • 250 mL (1 cup) sugar
  • 375 mL (1 ½ cups) fresh cranberries
  • 250 mL (1 cup) orange juice

Directions

  1. Line an 8” square baking dish with plastic wrap.
  2. In a saucepan, melt the butter. Add the flour and cook for 1 minute over medium heat, stirring constantly.
  3. Gradually whisk in the cream and bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly.
  4. Add the Alexis de Portneuf Cantonnier, Saputo Mozzarellissima, and Saputo Parmesan cheese. Stir until the cheese has melted. Add the egg yolk and stir to combine. Season with salt and pepper.
  5. Pour the mixture into the prepared pan. Cover with plastic wrap and press with a spatula to smooth out the surface. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or until the mixture is firm. Remove from the pan and cut into 36 cubes.
  6. Place the flour in a shallow plate, the eggs in a bowl and the breadcrumbs in a second bowl.
  7. Dip each cheese cube in the flour, and then dip it in the egg and the breadcrumbs. Place on a baking sheet.
  8. In a deep skillet, pour 2 cups of oil. Heat the oil over medium heat. Fry the cubes for 1 to 2 minutes or until golden brown.

 

For the cranberry sauce

  1. In a medium-sized saucepan set over medium heat, dissolve the sugar in the orange juice.
  2. Stir in the cranberries and cook until the cranberries start to pop (about 10 minutes).
  3. Remove from heat and place sauce in a bowl. Cranberry sauce will thicken as it cools.
  4. Serve alongside the mini “fondue parmesan”.
