Herb-green ricotta pate with sweet-pepper sauce (recipe)


  1. Have the ingredients at hand, and snip the parsley with scissors. When you measure it, press it into the cup lightly.
  2. Put all the ingredients up to and including the Tabasco in your processor. Process until smooth and pale green. You may have to scrape down the sides a couple of times.
  3. Leave the puree, and mix the broth/stock and lemon juice in a small pot. Sprinkle over the gelatine, and stir over medium heat until the gelatine dissolves. Do not cook!
  4. Cool to warm or luke-warm, then start the processor and pour in the gelatine. Puree well. Taste at this stage: ricotta is so fresh that I found it did need the extra salt.
  5. Oil a suitable small pie plate or small molds, and scrape in the puree. Neaten the top, decorate with the nut halves, cover with plastic wrap, and chill at least 6 hours or overnight.
  6. FOR THE SAUCE: I used chopped peppadews/piquante peppers, which come in a very tasty pickling liquid and needs no extra seasoning. So if using red bell peppers, spike it with a little hot sauce. You can even use a little vinaigrette dressing. Puree everything with a pinch of salt until a smooth sauce forms, about cup or 200 ml.
  7. Or puree a store-bought salsa!
  8. This will be great if served as a light lunch with well-chilled sauvignon blanc.
