Fluffy Cheese Soufflé:
Recipe:
- Grease the soufflé dish with soft melted butter and add two tbsp of breadcrumbs to your utensil. Coat it nicely over the melted butter and leave it aside.
- In a saucepan on medium heat, add four tbsp of butter and three tbsp of flour. Whisk both the ingredients well until it forms a creamy consistency. Cook for two minutes. Now slowly add two cups of whole milk and whisk. After that, add a cup of grated cheddar cheese, half tsp of salt, and a pinch of nutmeg. Stir continuously and make sure your soufflé sauce cools down a little bit.
- Once that happens, add four egg yolks and blend well until you get a good consistency. Put off the flame, transfer the sauce into a large glass bowl and set that aside. Whisk the leftover-egg whites with the help of an electric whisker. Add a quarter tsp of cream of tartar into it and whisk until you achieve nice stiff peaks.
- Transfer the whisked eggs into the soufflé sauce and combine both nicely. Finally, pour the soufflé batter into the coated soufflé dishes and put inside the oven at 350-degree Celcius for 35 minutes. Your delicious fluffy cheese soufflé is ready to be served.

Gruyere Spinach Cheese Souffle
Recipe:
- Preheat the oven at 200°C. Put a saucepan on low heat and add two large tbsp of soft melted salted butter. Add a few minced garlic cloves and cook for three minutes. Once done, add two tbsp of all-purpose flour, mix well and add around 1 ½ cup of milk. Stir the mixture nicely, make sure it's free from any lumps.
- Add the entire bunch of spinach to this white sauce mix and cook well, continually stirring for 5 minutes until it wilts. Add some seasoning and put off the flame. Transfer the mixture into a big glass bowl. Keep the bowl aside to cool off.
- Prepare two ramekins by greasing them with salted butter. Also, coat the ramekins thoroughly with breadcrumbs. Add a half cup of grated gruyere cheese to the spinach mixture and blend the ingredients well. In a different bowl, break an egg and separate the egg white from the yolk. Add the egg yolk into the spinach-gruyere mixture and mix well.
- Now, whisk the egg white in a different bowl until it turns white and forms a stiff peak. Add half a portion of the foamy egg white into the spinach bowl, use the fold-in technique to mix it. Continue doing this until the egg white mixture is all used up.
- The gruyere and spinach mixture is now ready and should be transferred into the two ramekins. Place the ramekins inside the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes until the mixture rises properly and sports a beautiful golden brown colour on top.
