How to cook

Plating & presentation

Serve straight from the baking dish at the table. A sprinkle of smoked paprika over the top adds colour and a subtle smoky note that pairs beautifully with the cheese.

Dana's tip

Three cheeses is the key — cheddar for sharpness, Gruyère for nuttiness, and cream cheese for that ultra-smooth, clingy texture. Using just one cheese makes the sauce grainy.
