In the saucepan, stir the flour into the rest of the melted butter, then sizzle everything for 1 min.

Leave to cool slightly, then mix in the remaining cheese, the cream or creme fraiche and the egg yolks. Season, then add the nutmeg and cayenne pepper.
- In a clean bowl, whisk the egg whites until stiff. Fold into the cheese sauce, then carefully tip into the souffle dish. Bake the souffle for 25 mins until puffed up and golden.
- While the souffle is cooking, toss the salad ingredients together. Once the souffle is cooked, dress the salad and serve alongside.
