Ingredients

• 8 oz Cream cheese
• 1 cup Sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
• 4 tbsp Butter, softened
• 2 tsp Curry powder
• 3 tbsp Chutney (e.g., mango chutney)
• 2 tbsp Green onion, finely chopped
• 0.5 tsp Salt
• 0.25 tsp Ground black pepper
• 0.25 cup Cashews, finely chopped
• 2 tbsp Fresh parsley, finely chopped (optional for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, and softened butter. Mix thoroughly until smooth and creamy.

Step 2

Add the curry powder, chutney, green onion, salt, and black pepper to the cheese mixture. Stir until all ingredients are well blended.

Step 3

Place a large piece of plastic wrap or parchment paper on a flat surface. Spoon the cheese mixture onto the center and shape it into a cylinder or ball, depending on your preference.

Step 4

Press the chopped cashews evenly onto the surface of the cheese pate, ensuring it is fully coated.

Step 5

Wrap the cheese pate tightly in the plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld and the pate to firm up.

Step 6

Before serving, unwrap the pate and transfer it to a serving plate. Optionally, garnish with chopped parsley for a fresh touch.

Step 7

Serve the curried cheese pate with crackers or vegetable sticks.
