Preparation: 20 min
Cooking: 25 min

Ingredients (serves 6 people):

- 4 eggs + (1 yolk - optional)
- 2/3 cups grated white cheese
- 2/3 cups of sifted flour
- 6 tbsps of butter + 1 tbsp for the cooking sheet
- 1 pinch of nutmeg
- salt and pepper


Directions:

Preheat the oven to 400°F.

In a thick and deep pot, heat 1 cup water.
When boiling, add the butter cut in pieces + 1 teaspoon of salt.

Remove from the heat and add the flour all at once.

Mix quickly, and let it dry for one minute at low heat.

Let it cool a bit, than add the eggs one by one, mixing well between each egg.

Add the grated cheese, nutmeg, salt and pepper.

Put this paste on a buttered oven sheet in small separated portions (the size of a nut), using two teaspoons.

You can paint the puffs with an egg yolk, using a brush.

Cook for 25 minutes, but check at 20 min (cookijg time depends on your oven).

You can change this dish into a main entree dish, by stuffing the puffs with foie gras, or by making a goat cheese stuffing, mixed nut, and some chives.

Serve with a salad.
