Ingredients
  • 200g Stilton cheese
  • 200g crumbly cheese. Basically, anything you can get your hands on depending on what side of the pond you live on. Here, my preference is Lancashire cheese
  • 2 tbsp Butter
  • 3 tbsp flour
  • 2 whisked egg yolks
  • 1 tsp English mustard powder
  • 1 1/2 tsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tsp Paprika (optional)
  • pinch of chilli powder or cayenne pepper (optional)
  • 100-150ml of a good real ale, if you cant get real ale use a stout such as guinness.
  • 12 slices of French bread
  • chopped parsley & cherry tomato to garnish.

Directions
  1. 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.
  2. Slowly whisk in the ale but do not let the mixture boil.
  3. Add half the stilton & crumbly cheese & stir until creamy, repeat the process until you have used all the cheese.
  4. Stir in the worcestershire sauce, mustard powder, paprika, chilli or cayenne pepper, pinch of salt a ground pepper & mix well.
  5. 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).
  6. place the parsley & tomato ontop & devour.
  7. 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!!

Ahhh...heaven on toast!!...

it doesn't even seem difficult...
just a matter of getting the ingredients---

12 slices--?
i'm only one person!

does the cheese mixture reheat well, do you think, if i wanted to have it again the next day?...and the next...and the next..........


Now THAT'S a Welsh Rarebit recipe I will be making very soon. Thank you for your variation on the traditional - and the cold ale is a MUST!


I have always wanted to try Welsh Rarebit and this recipe sounds like a good one. Thanks for posting!


This sounds wonderful. Would a Harp work for ale? Or an India Pale Ale? I really want to try this. Thanks again.


Right- i did it...finally...
used guiness and cheddar with blue cheese...
so it was rather mild...
next time i think i will make the effort to get the stilton and not just use what's on hand...

i miss the 'bite'...

but this was absolutely delish!
def 100 times better than anything i have had in a restaurant on this side of the pond...

thank you so much sir bonzai!..
i will def add this to the list of regulars!!!
