ingredients

2 tablespoons parmesan cheese, grated
55 g butter or 55 g margarine
45 g flour
300 ml milk
115 g Mature cheddar cheese, grated
3 eggs, separated
2 tablespoons fresh dill, chopped

directions

Preheat oven 400F/200C/gas mark 6. Butter 6 individual ramekin dishes and dust with the parmesan cheese.
Melt the butter or margarine in a saucepan. Add the flour and cook for 2 minutes, stirring. Stir in the milk. bring to a boil, stirring constantly, and simmer until thickened, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and let cool about 10 minutes.
Stir in the cheddar cheese, egg yolks, and dill into the sauce. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Transfer to a bowl.
In another bowl, beat the egg whites with a 1/8 tsp salt, until stiff peaks form.
Stir one quarter of the egg whites into the cheese sauce mixture to lighten it. Fold in the remaining egg whites.
Divide the mixture evenly between the prepared ramekin dishes. Bake until the souffles are puffed and golden, 15 - 20 minutes. Serve immediately.

Born in Scotland, brought up travelling, settled in RSA and brought up my family here, an IT son and 2 horsey daughters! Assorted animals, currently two dogs, a cat, a Bearded dragon, two corn snakes, multiple fish, and two Bengal finches. Oh, and a horse :D Work fulltime; in my spare time (if I'm not running around with youngsters) love to cook, often use the weekends to cook for the week. Love to entertain. my husband is a sports fanatic, enjoys helping in the kitchen and absolutely loves to eat the results!! I was a late starter, in my 30's when I started cooking, so I have brought my children up to Cook from an early age! And they all cook very well :D Also love to read, garden, browse fleamarkets, esp. antique markets, love to sit in the sun with a cappucino and a good book! Want to retire to the coast.....one day..... <img src=http://imagecache2.allposters.com/images/pic/APG/576-21387~Ooooodles-of-Noodles-Posters.jpg alt= /> <img
