Brie En Croute Recipe

Brie En Croute Directions

1. 1

   Prepare the Mandarin Coulis

   In a small saucepan, combine mandarin orange segments, sugar, and a pinch of salt. Cook over medium heat for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally until the mixture thickens slightly. Remove from heat and let cool.

2. 2

   Prepare the Brie

   Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Roll out the puff pastry on a lightly floured surface. Place the Brie cheese in the center of the pastry.

3. 3

   Wrap the Brie

   Fold the puff pastry over the Brie, sealing the edges well and trimming any excess pastry. Brush the top with the beaten egg for a golden finish.

4. 4

   Bake the Brie

   Transfer the wrapped Brie to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the pastry is golden brown.

5. 5

   Prepare to Serve

   While the Brie is baking, chop the toasted hazelnuts. Once the Brie is done, let it cool for a few minutes before slicing.

6. 6

   Plate the Dish

   Serve the Brie En Croute warm, drizzled with mandarin coulis and topped with chopped toasted hazelnuts.
