Who doesn’t love oozing, melted and warm cheese? The universal popularity of this elegant appetiser is the ease of which it can be thrown together with a myriad of flavour combinations. Delightfully spicy and sweet Jamaican sorrel chutney, fragrant rosemary and toasted pecans has always been a crowd-pleasing option for me when I serve drinks.
Serves 2-4
Ingredients
- 1 brie
- 1 jar of store bought Jamaican sorrel chutney

- Remove the pecans from the oven.
