Raclette is typical swiss dinner. You melt a side of a big piece of cheese and scrap it off on your dish. Then you eat the cheese with bread and vegetables. "Raclette" is from the french word "racler" and means to scrap something.
We love raclette but we make it a bit different. In Germany you can buy a little oven for the table with little eight till twelve pans and wooden scrapers. You can slide the pans into the oven and there is a heating element cooking your food and roasting stuff on the top plates.
The raclette is a very simple and creative dish. You can take everything you want in your pan and put some high fat cheese on top. Then you have to wait a few minutes and there comes out a wonderful dish out of the small oven!
My family used to have the raclette on New Years Eve and my sister and I also wanted it for christmas because we love it so much!

It's nice to have this dinner in the winter time when it's getting colder because when the oven is on the table cooking and roasting it get's soon very warm and cosy!
Here I have the wikipedia link in english and here in german if you want some more information.
