Ingredients
- 200g Stilton cheese shopping list

- 1 1/2 tsp worcestershire sauce shopping list
- 1 tsp paprika (optional) shopping list

How to make it
- In a saucepan melt the butter over a medium heat & add the flour, cook for 1min stirring constantly,add the eggs & stir for another 30secs.
- Slowly whisk in the ale but do not let the mixture boil.
- Add half the stilton & crumbly cheese & stir until creamy, repeat the process until you have used all the cheese.
- Stir in the worcestershire sauce, mustard powder, paprika, chilli or cayenne pepper, pinch of salt a ground pepper & mix well.
- Toast the french bread lightly & place on a plate, spoon over the creamy mixture(if you wish you can then place under a hot grill just to crisp the top lightly).
- place the parsley & tomato ontop & devour.
- Enjoy with the coldest best real ale or stout you can get you hands on, if all else fails, any alcohol will do the trick, who needs an excuse eh!!
