Ingredients
450 g cream cheese
50 g blue cheese, crumbled or cut up
180 g soft biltong, a bit fatty, sliced
2 Tbsp lemon juice
½ tsp ground cumin
Grinding of black pepper
Method
Put everything in a bowl. Blitz like mad until the biltong is in tiny bits, but leave it a bit chunky for texture. I served it with wonderfully crunchy black rice crackers from Woolies. DM/TGIFood

What’s cooking today: Biltong & blue cheese pâté
The biltong must be soft, preferably a bit fatty. I love the way a hint of lemon juice interplays with the cumin and blue cheese in this pâté, which can be whipped up in minutes. I did not use salt as the biltong does that job.
