4 ounce Vegetarian Stilton cheese;
grated

2 teaspoon Fresh chives; chopped
2 Freerange eggs; separated
4 Heaped tbsp agar agar
Grated rind of One half lemon
8 fl Water

1. Blend together the Stilton cheese, curd cheese, chives and egg
yolks.

2. Dissolve the agar agar in the water in a pan over a low heat until
completely dissolved up to 20 minutes. (Do not try to speed up the
process by heating the water quickly, or using it before fully
dissolved). Allow to cool a little, then stir it into the cheese
mixture with lemon rind and natural yoghurt. Leave mixture on one
side to start to thicken.

3. Whisk egg whites until stiff, fold a little into mousse mixture
first then lightly and quickly fold in the rest. Check for seasoning.

4. Lightly grease a 1/2pint ring mould. Turn mousse into mould and
leave overnight in the fridge to set.

5. Next day, ease the mousse from the sides of the mould. Turn it
onto a serving plate and carefully coat the sides with the peanuts,
pressing them into the surface. Fill the centre with the watercress
before serving.
