Method

Rub the inside of a small pan with the cut surfaces of the garlic.
Pour the wine into the pan and bring to the boil. Reduce the heat and add the cheese. Stir until it melts.
Mix the cornflour with the kirsch and pour into the cheese. Stir until the mixture thickens, taking care not to let it catch and burn on the pan’s base.
Serve immediately, in a fondue pot, to keep it warm, with bread.
