Prep Time: 5 Minutes
Cook Time: 10 Minutes
Ready In: 15 Minutes
Servings: 2
Ingredients:
5 ounces sharp cheddar, finely grated
5 ounces gruyere cheese, finely grated
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons fresh thyme leaves
arugula salad, recipe below
Directions:
1. In a medium bowl, toss together both cheeses and the flour. Heat a large nonstick skillet over a low to medium flame and sprinkle 1 1/2 tablespoons of the cheese mixture onto the pan to form a 4-inch circle. Sprinkle some thyme over the cheese and cook until the cheese is somewhat melted but not firm. Using a spatula, turn the cheese over and cook until firm and golden.
2. Transfer the frico to a paper towel, then quickly drape over a large rolling pin until completely cooled, to form a shell shape.
3. To serve, remove from pin and top each frico with arugula salad.
4. Arugula Salad:
5. 4 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
6. 1 small shallot, finely chopped
7. 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
8. 1 teaspoon honey
9. 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
10. Salt
11. Freshly ground black pepper
12. 2 cups arugula
13. In a small bowl, whisk together lemon juice, shallots, mustard, and honey. Whisk in the olive oil and add salt and pepper, to taste. Lightly dress arugula leaves with the vinaigrette.
