How to make it
Terrifically tart redcurrants work extremely well in a goats’ cheese salad, adding a sweet tanginess to fresh and delicate cheese. Packed full of flavour and textures.
- Mix the Redcurrant Jelly and vinegar together in a small pan over a low heat, stirring until the jelly has dissolved.
- Take off the heat and set aside.
- Place the goats’ cheese rounds onto a baking sheet and place under a moderate grill.
- Grill for 2-3 mins or until the cheese has turned a golden brown.
- Meanwhile, mix the rocket, lettuce, onion, carrot and tomatoes together and divide between the four plates.
- Drizzle with olive oil.
- To serve, gently place the goats’ cheese on top of the salad and pour over the redcurrant, balsamic sauce.
- Serve with crusty bread
