Cast Iron Raclette

By CheeseDiva

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 lbs of Raclette cheese (or Gruyere), cut into roughly 1/4 in thick slices
• 1 Tbs vegetable oil
• Suggested accompaniments: steamed new or yukon gold potatoes, cornichons, pickled onions, roasted peppers, and hearty baguette. Pumpernickel is also a delicious, albeit a bit untraditional, complement to the nutty flavors of raclette
