Ingredients
250g brie cheese
or camembert3/4 cup sugar
2 Tbsp water
50 pomegranate arils
1/4 cup pistachio nuts
lightly toasted and very roughly chopped
Method
Heat the oven to 180°C bake. Place the brie in a small ovenproof dish
Place the sugar and water in a small pot over a medium heat and gently stir until the sugar is mostly dissolved. You can add a little extra water to help with this as undissolved sugar crystals will be problematic.
Once the mixture starts to boil then you need to stop stirring.
Put the brie in the oven and warm for about 7 minutes and then transfer to a serving plate.
Once the sugar syrup starts to colour then watch carefully and tilt the pan to get an even colour. As soon as it gets to a rich caramel colour then quickly remove from the heat and pour over the top of the brie, it will also run down the sides.
Immediately top with nuts and pomegranate krills, allow a few minutes to set and then serve with crusty bread or crackers.
