Goats Cheese in Marinade

Ingredients
1 Teaspoon Fennel Seeds
1 Teaspoon Peppercorns
250g Goats Cheese
2 Cloves Garlic
2 Small Green Chillies (de seeded and chopped as fine as you can)
2 Sprigs Rosemary (give them a good crush with a rolling pin or pestle and mortar)
2 Bay leaves (also crushed)
Olive Oil
French Bread to Serve

Equipment
1 SHARP Knife
1 Chopping Board
1 Rolling Pin
1 Frying Pan
1 Air Tight Storage Box

The Good Bit
  1. Dry fry the fennel seeds and peppercorns until you hear them begin to pop, then remove from the heat and allow to cool.
  2. Roll your cheese into balls then place in the air tight box, add in the remaining ingredients, topping up with the olive oil until you cover the cheese. Leave for 3 days but no more than a week and serve with warm french bread.
