Camembert Cheese Fritters
From:	Marie-Paul, Auteuil, Laval, Quebec, Canada
Comments:	To succeed in making these fritters, the Camembert cheese must be cold, ripen but not runny. Cracker instead of bread crumbs can be used. This dish can either be served as a hors d'oeuvre or as a 'feast', at the end of a meal. Serve along with a robust enough red wine, such as a Burgundy wine.
Servings:	8

1 [1/2-pound / 227-g] Camembert cheese, cut into 8 segments 1 pinch Cayenne pepper 2 tablespoons [17.5 g] all-purpose flour 2 beaten eggs 1/2 cup [125 mL] breadcrumbs Oil for frying 4 apples

Freeze Camembert cheese segments for 1 hour. Mix Cayenne pepper with flour. Roll each Camembert segment into flour, then dip into beaten eggs and then coat with breadcrumbs. Into a deep-fryer, heat oil to 350°F [180°C] or until a tiny piece of bread browns within 1 minute. Fry cheese pieces for approximately 30 seconds, until golden brown. Drain onto paper toweling. Peel and cut each apple into 4 wedges. Onto a serving plate, arrange fritters between apple wedges; serve immediately.
