Raclette & Wine

• 1 großer Apfel
• 1 Rolle Ziegenkäse
• 4 Scheiben Bacon
• 4 TL Honig
• 1 TL Thymian
• 4 Blätter Eichblattsalat
• frische Zweige Thymian zum Garnieren
• nach Belieben Salz & Pfeffer

Preheat the grill to the highest setting.

Fry the bacon slices without fat in a non-stick frying pan until crispy and drain on a piece of kitchen paper. Leave the rendered fat in the pan.

Wash the apple, core it with a corer and then cut it into four, approx. 1 cm thick slices. Slowly fry the apple slices in the remaining bacon fat until just cooked, using the tip of a knife to check the doneness. Place the apple slices in a lightly greased baking dish, sprinkle with thyme and place a crispy fried bacon slice on top of each one.

Divide the goat's cheese into 4 thalers and place one thaler on each apple slice, sprinkle with thyme again and drizzle with 1 teaspoon of honey.

Bake under the grill until the cheese is lightly browned.

Serve the goat's cheese and apple tartlets on a lettuce leaf or, if you prefer, on a bed of lettuce (add a honey-flavoured dressing)
