Appetizer of Cheese and Chopped Beans


Servings: 4
Prep time: 20
INGREDIENTS
  • - 150 g shelled broad beans
  • - 200 g of fresh goat cheese
  • - 200 g of cheese
  • - 50 g of gorgonzola
  • - Extra-virgin olive oil
  • - salt
  • - Green pepper
INSTRUCTIONS
  1. Mix the goat cheese, pecorino and possibly gorgonzola or roquefort, reducing them to a smooth cream. Then let it rest in the refrigerator overnight so it solidifies.
  2. Remove the skins from the beans. To simplify the task, you can first blanch them for a couple of minutes. At the end chop with a sharp knife by getting a grain. Dry if wet.
  3. Make little balls with the cream cheese by hand or with an ice cream scoop . In the latter case, after every ball dip it in warm water to clean it.
  4. Let roll the balls in the chopped beans and arrange on a serving plate. Season with a little olive oil, a sprinkling of salt and freshly ground green pepper.
