Recipe: Chutney-Glazed Cheese Pate

CHUTNEY-GLAZED CHEESE PATE

6 oz cream cheese, softened
4 oz sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
3 tbsp dry sherry
3/4 tsp curry powder
1/4 tsp salt
TO SERVE:
chutney (I recommend raffetto brand chut-nut)
2 scallions, both white and green part finely sliced, optional
sesame seed crackers or wheat crackers

Combine the first five ingredients using a food processor.

Spread cheese mixture 1/2 thick on a serving platter (Spread the cheese in the shape of the platter for more attractive presentation; just make sure the depth is close to 1/2 thick.)

Cover and chill until serving time.

At serving time, spread the top of the cheese with chutney. If desired, top with sliced scallions. Serve with crackers.
