Ingredients
  

  • 200 g mixed cheese (1 generous cup)
  • ½ tablespoon cream cheese or butter
  • 1 ½ tablespoon white wine
  • ½ tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
  • pinch smoked paprika
  • black pepper

Instructions
 

  • Grate the hard cheese like cheddar, and cube the soft cheeses like brie, then place them into a small blender.
  • Add the cream cheese, wine, parsley, smoked paprika and black pepper, then blend until smooth. (You may need to add a little more cream cheese if you have used mostly hard cheese.)
  • Place in the fridge until ready to firm, then let it come to room temperature before serving.
  • Serve with toast, fresh bread, or crackers.
  • The fromage fort will keep 3-5 days in the fridge - be aware thathe flavours will become stronger the longer it sits in the fridge.

Notes

Use blue cheese sparingly as it can overpower the other cheese.
Wine: Rose or sparkling wine will work too - whichever is open! 
Nutrition is based on using 200g brie and will vary depending on the types of cheese you use.
