  It would have been good if my boyfriend didn't tell me to do a little dance while making it.

  Wow! Easy and stunning! Have made these twice in one week. Once as a starter for my family for Easter Sunday lunch (everyone was very impressed, even my Dad loved them and he usually swears that he can't stomach cooked cheese!) and then again last night for my friend and me - just the two of us so I had to quarter the quantities as best I could and use just 1 medium egg, which made me a bit unsure whether it would still work but I am delighted to say that they came out fine and tasted wonderful. Will be making these again and again.

  i made the mushroom souffles which all my family thought tasted delicious but when they were cooked the second time instead of being thick and souffle shaped, were like pancakes! Can anyone suggest what might have gone wrong?

  Can't rate his highly enough. Did this for a dinner party and everyone thought I'd spent ages in the kitchen. Great that you can do most of the cooking before the guests arrive.

  Fantastic starter which is reliable. So much flavour yet a smallish portion which won't fill up the guests before main course. Have served this several times - it's a hit every time!!!

  What a prefect dinner party starter! Each of my guests demolished their souffle and as you are able to make it in advance it's just the easiet things to pop in the over to reheat at the last minute. This is now a firm favourite.

  I've made these numerous times and think they are fantastic. If you are having a heavy main course, these are s perfect starter. As they are so light and tasty you will find that it increases your appetite for the rest of the meal.

  Excellent. Tasty and light. I halved the recipe (with the help of digital scales!) and worked absolutely fine. I also used a few exotic mushrooms to put on the top as they looked prettier.

  Halved the recipe and used 2 medium eggs. Was a great starter before a lovely fillet of beef and raspberry almond tart for dessert. All went down really well. I impressed myself!! Very delicious and simple to make.

  Contrary to what's been said by the last reviewer, this isn't actually particularly cheesey. If you don't like gruyere, why make a recipe with it in?! You could easily substitute another cheese in here too. Recipe is straightforward and delicious - far easier and more reliable than a regular souffle. I used semi-skimmed milk, 40g of butter and half fat creme fraiche to reduce the fat and calories slightly without in any way detrimenting the flavour. I'll certainly make it again.
