Brie Or Camembert Appetizers - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    generous wedge brie cheese (sometimes, I buy those very small rounds of brie or camembert and serve one or half per person) or camembert cheese, for each person you're planning to serve (sometimes, I buy those very small rounds of brie or camembert and serve one or half per person)
    milk
    flour
    1 egg (or 2 or 3 - again depending on how many people you're serving this to)
    plain breadcrumbs
    butter
    lettuce leaf, chiffonade (lettuce cut in thin, strips to make an attractive plating)
    fruit chutney or preserves
    crusty bread
Preparation
    Dip the wedge of brie or camembert in milk and dredge in flour.
    Then dip in egg and breadcrumbs.
    Let cheese'sit' for 10-15 minutes to allow coating to set.
    Melt butter in a large skillet.
    When hot, add as many brie/camembert slices as will fit without crowding.
    Fry until golden-brown, turn over carefully and fry on other side.
    Put a handful of the lettuce chiffonade on each serving plate.
    Centre a golden brie/camembert slice on the plate.
    Top with a spoonful of fruit chutney or preserves (or serve the chutney on the side); Cranberry Sauce is WONDERFUL with this!
    Serve immediately with plenty of crusty bread to spread the molten cheese on.
    Enjoy!
