Souffles look amazing and they are surprisingly easy to prepare. One of my favourite souffles is this delicious three- cheese one. To test whether the beaten egg whites are stiff enough, simply hold the bowl upside down. If the eggs do not fall out, then they are stiff enough to use. Timing is important when cooking souffles but you can prepare the cheese mixture ahead minus the egg and then simply warm through gently, stir in the egg yolks, beat the egg whites until stiff and then fold them gently into the cheese mixture, so if you are having guests it would take less than 10 minutes to finish them off and then just 12 minutes to bake until they puff up and are lovely and golden. I like to serve them in individual ramekins.

This recipe comes from a new TV series, 'Annabel's Kitchen' which launches on CITV and ITV on April 11. There is also an accompanying book 'Annabel's Kitchen' – a first cookbook for four to 10 year olds with step by step photography. Published by Ebury.
