Cooking Instructions

  1. Line a loaf tin with cling film.
  2. Lay the cucumber ribbons into the tin, making sure to overlap, also, leave some hanging over the edges.
  3. Drizzle the asparagus with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
  4. Chargrill the asparagus in a very hot griddle pan then set aside to chill.
  5. Mix together the cream cheese, feta cheese, chives, basil, salt and pepper.
  6. Spread 1/3 of the cheese mixture into the loaf tin.
  7. Layer ½ of the asparagus onto the cheese, packing it as tightly as possible – this will ensure that your terrine cuts beautifully for serving.
  8. Top with another layer of cheese, then top with the remaining asparagus.
  9. Finally, spread over the final amount of cheese.
  10. Fold in the overhanging cucumber ribbons to cover the top then cover with cling film.
  11. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before unmoulding and slicing to serve.
  12. Serve with crispy melba toast.
