Ingredients
- 150 ml (2/3 cup) natural yogurt
- 50 g (1 3/4 oz) Stilton cheese
- 2 ripe dessert pears
- Salt and pepper
- 100 g (3 1/2 oz) curd cheese
- Pinch of nutmeg (optional)
- Shredded lettuce leaves
Method
- Mash the Stilton with a tablespoon of the yogurt.
- Beat the rest of the yogurt into the curd cheese and add the salt and pepper.
- Peel, halve and core the dessert pears.
- Divide the Stilton mixture between each cavity.
- Arrange the lettuce on a serving platter and place the pears, cut side down, on top.
- Spoon over the curd cheese mixture and sprinkle with the nutmeg.
- Another option is to broil (grill in UK) these for a few minutes to warm up the pears and melt the cheese.
- Serve chilled.
