Add the flour and almonds together. Dip the Brie into this mixture and remove.
Beat the egg yolks into the flour, then slowly add the soda water. Whisk the egg whites until fluffy, then fold them into the yolk mixture. Dip the cheese into this mixture and crisp fry at 160°C / 315°F until golden brown.
For the salad:
Using a potato peeler peel off shavings of apple and pear and then toss through with the rocket and dandelion leaves.
For the dressing:
Whisk together the mustard, apple sauce and lemon juice. Whisk in the olive oil and finish with salt and pepper.
Serve the crisp fried Brie on the freshly dressed salad.
