225g onions, peeled and very finely chopped
1 garlic clove, crushed
2 tbsp olive oil
700g boneless chicken thighs
3 tsp finely chopped tarragon
75g fresh white breadcrumbs
1 egg beaten
4 slices Raclette cheese, rind removed
salt and pepper
oil for shallow frying
Preparation:
Saut� the onion and garlic in the olive oil for 10 minutes until soft. Set aside and leave to cool.
2 Place the chicken thighs in a food processor and process for 5-10 seconds until finely minced. Spoon into a large mixing bowl and add the cooled onion mixture, tarragon, breadcrumbs and egg. Season generously with salt and pepper and mix everything well.
3 Divide the mixture into eight sausage shapes. Cut each Raclette cheese slice into four thin strips. Push 2 strips of cheese into the middle of each sausage and reform the meat mixture around the cheese so it is well covered.
Chill for 30 minutes.
4 Heat the oil in a large frying pan and fry the sausages for 5 minutes turning to brown evenly. Transfer them to a baking tray and cook in a pre-heated oven at 200�C, 400�F, gas mark 6 for 15-20 minutes.

Use on a pizza base. Add to pasta dish with herbs and cream sauce: make onion soup and top with raclette and croutons: grate and use in a fondue. Grate and serve melted over roasted potato and serve with pickles - traditional dish, this one...
Its not a great cheese for cooking with as it is a style developed almost exclusively to be semi-melted - best used in a raclette pan and served as a whole 'cooked slice' with a couple of other cooked veg.
Certainly worth trying the above suggested recipe - or to cut out most of the prep, get some decent sausages, cut off the skin, make into little meat balls by dusting your hands with flour and rolling in the meat ti balls. Stuff a square of the raclette into the ball, roll over and fry till cooked. Serve in pasta, rice, couscous or cook, chill and have in salad perhaps...
