Black Pudding, Cashel Blue And Apple Recipe

Black Pudding, Cashel Blue And Apple Recipe

This canapé is chef Robin Gill's ode to all the incredible produce he discovered whilst visiting Co. Cork on the island of Ireland.

Ingredients
  • 30g of unsalted butter
  • 300g of black pudding, cut into thick coins
  • 1 apple, sliced into pieces slightly smaller than the black pudding
  • 1 dash of cider vinegar
  • 150g of Cashel Blue cheese
  • tarragon leaves, to garnish
Method · 15 min
  1. Put a wide frying pan over a medium-low heat. Add the butter, then arrange the black pudding slices in a single layer in the pan. Allow them to gently cook and crisp up for 5 minutes, then turn and cook for another 5 minutes, then remove and drain on kitchen paper (remove any casing)
  2. Meanwhile, toss the the apple slices in a little cider vinegar to prevent them turning brown
  3. Arrange the crisp black pudding slices into a serving dish. Top each one with a piece of Cashel Blue cheese, then a piece of apple. Stick a cocktail stick through them to secure everything in place, then garnish with tarragon leaves
