Cooking Steps

1
  • Preheat BBQ to a high heat.
  • Trim ends of asparagus. Trim green tops from Dutch carrots and scrub them clean (halve any thick carrots lengthways).
  • Trim green beans. Thinly slice garlic.
  • Score double cream brie in a crisscross pattern, press garlic into the slits and wrap in foil, leaving the top uncovered.
  • Thickly slice bake-at-home ciabatta.
2
  • When BBQ is hot, place wrapped brie on edge of grill away from direct heat. Cook for 15 minutes, with hood closed, or until soft and melted.
  • Carefully transfer to a serving platter and allow to cool slightly.

No BBQ?  Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. Bake brie, until softened, 7-10 minutes.

3
  • When the brie is done, in a medium bowl, combine asparagus, green beans and carrots with a drizzle of olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper.
  • Brush each side of ciabatta with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
  • Grill carrot, asparagus, green beans and ciabatta, turning occasionally, until tender and golden, 5-6 minutes.

No BBQ? Heat a large frying pan over a medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook carrots, green beans and asparagus until tender, 5-7 minutes. Add a dash of water to the pan to help veggies cook. Toast ciabatta until golden and warmed through.

  • To platter with brie fondue, arrange summer veg dippers and toasted ciabatta around baked brie. Enjoy!
