Appetizers - Cream Cheese by Amalia N. - Recipia

To prepare a delicious roasted pepper cream, we start by roasting the peppers. Choose red or yellow peppers, as they provide an intense flavor and a vibrant color to the dish. Roast them on a grill or in the oven at a temperature of 200 degrees Celsius until the skin turns brown and begins to peel. It is important to turn them occasionally to cook evenly. Once they are ready, wrap them in aluminum foil to let them steam for 10-15 minutes; this step will make peeling easier. After they have cooled, peel the peppers, remove the stem and seeds, then chop them as finely as possible. They will add an intense flavor to the cream, and the fine texture will be essential for a successful dish. In a separate bowl, combine the cottage cheese with yogurt and olive oil. These ingredients will add creaminess and a pleasant taste to the dish. Mix well until you obtain a smooth composition. If desired, add a teaspoon of sweet or hot paprika, depending on your preferences. This ingredient will add an extra layer of flavor and a beautiful color hue. Finely chop the ham and onion, then incorporate them into the cheese mixture. The ham will provide a salty and savory note, while the onion will add a bit of crunch and a flavorful taste. Add the chopped peppers and mix well so that all the ingredients combine perfectly. Season with salt, pepper, and a little chili, according to personal preferences, being careful not to overdo it to avoid masking the flavor of the peppers. Once the cream is well mixed, transfer it to a container and let it chill in the refrigerator for at least two hours. This resting time will allow the flavors to blend harmoniously, giving you a tasty and refreshing dish. When serving, use slices of fresh or toasted bread. The roasted pepper cream will spread easily on the bread, and each bite will be an explosion of flavors. You can garnish with a few fresh parsley leaves or a slice of pepper for an attractive look. This simple and delicious recipe is perfect for a quick snack, a party, or even an appetizer at an elegant dinner. Enjoy every moment of this refined dish!
