- 1 clove garlic, halved

How to make it
This fondue recipe is simple, fun and outrageously cheesy!
Rub halves of garlic around the inside of the fondue pot.
Add the white wine and lemon juice to the pot and heat until boiling.
Lower the heat and gradually stir in the grated cheeses until they’re completely melted, stirring all the time.
Blend the Kirsch with the cornflour and add to the cheese mixture. Cook gently until the mixture is smooth making sure not to let it boil or it will burn.
Using the fondue forks, dip the bread cubes into the cheese and serve!
