Chef's notes

  • Bake in a shallow dish that can go straight to the table.
  • Use mango, apple or cranberry chutney depending on the menu.
  • Serve immediately, as Brie firms again as it cools.
  • For a vegetarian version, omit the bacon and add toasted pecans.

Creamy Brie and chutney need freshness with enough fruit to match the sweet-savoury topping.
