Ingredients

  • 1 1/4 lb soft goat cheese
  • 1 Tbsp. minced flat-leaf parsley
  • 1 1/2 Tbsp. snipped fresh chives
  • 1 1/2 Tbsp. fresh thyme
  • 2 Tbsp. minced toasted pecans
  • 1 Tbsp. freshly-cracked black pepper
  • 2 tsp paprika
  • 2 tsp curry pwdr
  • 2 Tbsp. extra-virgin extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 tsp red-pepper flakes

Directions

  1. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Form 1 Tbsp. of the goat cheese into a small ball. Transfer to the baking sheet. Continue with the remaining cheese. Chill the balls for 10 min to set slightly.
  2. Place the parsley, chives, thyme, pecans, and pepper in 5 separate bowls. Roll about 6 balls in each of the 5 coatings, and set aside.
  3. To make the paprika band, sprinkle the paprika in a straight line on a cutting board. Straighten the edges of the paprika with a knife. Roll 6 of the balls down the line to create a strip of paprika on them.
  4. To make a dot of curry on the 6 remaining balls, place the curry in a sieve, cover half of each ball with a wide knife, and sprinkle the curry over the other half.
  5. Pour the extra virgin olive oil onto a serving platter. Sprinkle the oil with red-pepper flakes. Arrange the goat-cheese balls on the platter, and serve with toothpicks on the side.
  6. Makes 3 1/2 dozen.
