Maple glazed Goat’s cheese salad
I love goat’s cheese, particularly the ones with the rind on, as these can make fantastic easy meals or excellent starters at a dinner party. This maple glazed goat’s cheese salad is one of my favourite recipes – it’s ready in just 5 minutes! Served with wholesome bread it’s a lovely lunch – and I’ve served as a starter too at dinner parties. You can use any nuts that’s seasonal or fits in your overall menu – this time I used pistachios, but I’ve made with walnuts and pecan nuts too.
Ingredients
Method
- Cut the goat’s cheese into 4 mini logs.
- Heat the oil in a frying pan and gently sauté the onion until soft, then add half of the maple syrup and caramelise. Remove the onion to a plate.
- Meanwhile, scatter the salad leaves onto two plates. Add the tomatoes. Mix the dressing.
- Brush the cheese (the cut sides) with the remaining maple syrup and cook for a minute or so on each side until golden.
- Place 2 pieces of goat’s cheese onto each plate. Arrange the nuts and caramelised onion around them.
- Drizzle with the dressing and serve.
