Ingredients

  • 15 g butter ~1 tbsp
  • 1 1/2 tsp self-raising flour
  • 125 ml milk ~1/2 cup
  • 100 g gouda cheese ~1 cup grated, grated
  • Black pepper
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 medium avocado

Instructions

  • Heat the oven to 190°C (Gas Mark 5 / 375°F).
  • Melt the butter in a saucepan, and add the flour. Whisking constantly, cook for a minute or so over a fairly low heat. Add the milk gradually, whisking until smooth each time before adding more. When all of the milk has been added and the mixture is smooth, add the grated gouda cheese and plenty of black pepper, and cook for a couple more minutes over a fairly low heat, until the cheese has melted.
  • Separate the eggs, and discard the yolks (or save for a different use). Whisk the eggs until they form stiff peaks.
  • In a separate bowl, mash the avocado with a fork until smooth.
  • Add the mashed avocado and the cheese sauce to the whisked egg whites, and very gently fold the mixture together until well combined, making sure to keep as much air in the mixture as possible.
  • Thoroughly grease three large ramekins, and distribute the mixture evenly. Place in the oven for around 20 minutes, or until the soufflés have risen well, and are crispy on top. Serve immediately.
