Elevate your Easter meal with a rich and creamy dish paired with roasted bell peppers.
Ingredients:
  • 200g cream cheese
  • 250g ricotta cheese
  • 1 red capsicum, roasted, seeds removed, finely diced
  • 8 semi-dried tomatoes, chopped
  • 40.00 ml chopped fresh chives
  • 20.00 ml chopped basil, plus a few extra extra leaves
  • 62.50 ml pitted kalamata olives, chopped

Instructions:
  • Line six 7cm terracotta plant pots with muslin or six 125ml dariole moulds with plastic wrap.
  • In a large bowl, combine cream cheese, ricotta (pressed through a sieve), 3/4 of the chopped capsicum, tomato, chives, basil, and half of the olives. Season to taste and mix well.
