Ingredients
Instructions
-
Start by preparing the shrimp. In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp and season with salt and pepper. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side until pink and cooked through. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
-
Using the same skillet, add minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant. Pour in the white wine and let it simmer for a few minutes to reduce slightly.
-
In a separate saucepan, combine heavy cream, Gruyere, and Emmental cheeses. Heat over medium-low heat, stirring constantly until the cheeses melt and the mixture is smooth.
-
In a small bowl, whisk together cornstarch, lemon juice, and Dijon mustard. Slowly pour this mixture into the cheese sauce, stirring continuously until the sauce thickens.
-
Once the cheese sauce is smooth and thickened, add the cooked shrimp back to the skillet with the garlic and white wine. Stir to combine and coat the shrimp with the sauce.
-
Transfer the shrimp and cheese mixture to a fondue pot or a heatproof serving dish to keep warm.
-
Serve the Shrimp Fondue with your choice of accompaniments such as baguette cubes, steamed vegetables, or cooked potatoes for dipping. Enjoy the creamy, cheesy delight with your favorite wine or beverage.
-
Remember to stir the fondue occasionally to prevent it from sticking to the bottom and to keep the consistency smooth and creamy throughout your meal.
-
Encourage your guests to get involved and have fun dipping and swirling their favorite items in the delectable cheese sauce for a truly interactive dining experience.
