These might sound complicated, but being twice baked means you can get ahead and just pop them back in the oven when your guests arrive

- Heat the oven to 190C/fan 170C/gas 5. Scald the milk with the onion, bay leaf and peppercorns. Make a roux by melting the butter in a pan, then stirring in the flour. Cook for a couple of minutes, then strain over the scalded milk and whisk until smooth. Bring to the boil, cook for 2 minutes until it thickens, then cool a little. Add the chopped parsley, egg yolk and the crumbled goat's cheese. Season well.
- Whisk the egg whites to firm peaks with a good pinch of salt. Butter 6 ramekins (approx 200ml each), then coat the insides with the grated parmesan.
- Add a dollop of the egg white to the roux mix to loosen it, then fold in the rest. Spoon the mix into the dishes and wipe the top of each dish so there are no dribbles.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes until set. Cool slightly, then turn out. You can now keep the soufflés until you need to cook them.
- To make the sauce, heat the cream, add a good grind of pepper and mix in the goat's cheese until melted. Put each soufflé into a buttered heatproof dish, pour a little sauce over to cover and sprinkle with the grated gruyère. Bake at 200C/fan 180C/gas 6 for 15 minutes until the soufflés have puffed up again and are bubbling and browned.
