Ingredients
Instructions
- Adjust rack to top position and preheat oven to 425°F. Wash and dry produce. Trim, peel and cut carrots on a diagonal into ½-inch-thick pieces. Cut potatoes into ½-inch-thick wedges. Toss carrots on one side of a baking sheet with a drizzle of oil, salt and pepper. Toss potatoes on empty side with a drizzle of oil, salt and pepper. Roast on top rack until browned and tender, 20-25 minutes.
- While carrots and potatoes roast, trim green beans if necessary. Halve, core and thinly slice apple. Halve and toast baguette; halve crosswise and slice into 1-inch pieces. Place green beans in a large microwave-safe bowl; cover tightly with plastic wrap. Microwave until green beans are bright green and tender, 1-2 minutes. Carefully uncover (watch out for steam!) and toss green beans with salt and pepper.
- Meanwhile, heat cream sauce base, cheese roux concentrate and 2 TBSP water (4 TBSP for 4 servings) in a small pot over medium-high heat until steaming and slightly bubbling, 1-2 minutes. Reduce heat to medium. Add cheddar and mozzarella one small handful at a time, alternating and whisking constantly between additions, until melted.
- Arrange potatoes, carrots, green beans, apple slices and baguette pieces on a large board or platter. Serve family style with fondue for dipping. Place a trivet or kitchen towel underneath the fondue pot to protect your surface.
Recipe Tips
For extra flavor, add a pinch of garlic powder or paprika to the roasted vegetables.
If the fondue becomes too thick, stir in a splash of milk or cream to thin it out.
Feel free to swap the dippers: try broccoli, cherry tomatoes or crusty bread cubes.
FAQ
Can I make this fondue ahead of time?
Yes, you can prepare the roasted vegetables and slice the apple and baguette in advance. Reheat the fondue gently on the stove, adding a little water or milk if needed.
What if I don't have a fondue pot?
You can serve the fondue directly from the small pot you cooked it in. Just place it on a trivet to keep it warm.
Can I use different cheeses?
Absolutely! Try Gruyère, fontina or a mix of your favorite melting cheeses. Just keep the total amount similar.
