Save

Lightening up soft goat’s cheese with yogurt and oil and whizzing it up so it’s light and fluffy is a great way to mellow its flavour, for those that aren’t diehard fans. Chilli and garlic-infused honey contrasts the creamy, grassy cheese with heat and sweetness.

Method

Make the hot honey first. Put all the ingredients in a small pan with a pinch of salt and warm gently over a low-medium heat, stirring every now and then for about 10 minutes to release the flavours.
Meanwhile, put the goat’s cheese and yogurt in a food processor and whizz until smooth. Continue processing while drizzling in the olive oil until all incorporated. Season, then spoon into a bowl. Drizzle over the hot honey and serve with crudités and/or breadsticks for dipping.
