Unwrap the Camembert, discarding any wrapping or waxed paper.

Put the cheese back in its wooden box.

Use a small sharp knife to make several slits in the top of the cheese.

Push a sliver of garlic and a small sprig of rosemary into each hole.

Pop the lid back on the Camembert.

Tightly wrap the Camembert box in a sheet of foil to stop any melted cheese leaking out.

Bake on a baking tray at 200°C (392°F) for 15 to 20 minutes until the cheese is melted inside.

Serve hot out of the oven.
