Number Of Ingredients 8

Ingredients

100g ricotta cheese
25g Cashel Blue cheese , chopped
2 spring onions , whites only, very finely chopped
1 cucumber , thickly sliced (about 14 inches)
16 small black grapes
4 toasted pecan halves, cut into slivers
½ 80g tub pomegranate seeds
a few fresh thyme leaves

Steps:

Beat the ricotta with the blue cheese and onion until really smooth. Arrange the cucumber slices on a large platter. Top each cucumber slice with some of the cheese mixture - you can pipe it on if you want a professional finish.
Top half with a grape and sliver of pecan, and the remainder with pomegranate seeds and thyme. Keep chilled until ready to serve. Will keep in the fridge for up to one day.
