Flavoured Cheese Fondue

One of my flatmates said that I was stuck in the 1970s when I said that I liked fondue, it's a bit old fashioned I know but on a cold evening I don't think there is anything better! A fondue can be varied in so many ways, the cheese can be varied, the amount of garlic, the use of herbs! So So many variations!!

For this you will need:

1 Large Chorizo- Chopped into thin medallions.
90g of Cheese (per person)- chopped- Emmental, Gruyere or a good quality Cheddar work best but Brie works well as do Blue Cheeses.
150ml White Wine
3 Cloves of Garlic, crushed.
Cubes of Bread and Raw Vegetables 

1. Set a frying pan on high heat, add the chorizo and fry until the paprika oil comes out.
2. Take it off the heat and set the medallions to one side.
3. Place the remaining ingredients and the oil from the chorizo in a saucepan or fondue pot on low to medium heat and stir until the cheese has melted and the contents of the pot combined.
4.If using a Fondue pot, light the burner and place the pot on top alternatively if you do not have a fondue set, eat from the saucepan and place back on the heat until the cheese melts again. 
5.Serve with the Cubes of Bread, Raw Vegetables and Chorizo Medallions.
