Ingredients
- 4 Zucchini Medium
- 4 tablespoons Olive oil
- 10.58 oz Asparagus About 20 Spears
- 5.29 oz Ricotta cheese
- 3.5 oz Feta cheese crumbled
- ¼ cup Parmesan cheese grated
- 1 tablespoon Pesto optional
- 1 Lemon zest & juice
Instructions
- Thinly slice the zucchini into strips with a vegetable peeler.
- Heat a frying pan or griddle pan on a medium heat and add half the olive oil
- Gently fry for 1-2 minutes until just tender, turning over when slightly golden.
- Add the other half of the olive oil as you continue to cook all the zucchini strips
- Steam (or boil) the asparagus until just tender for about 3 minutes. Drain, dry and set aside.
- In a bowl add the Ricotta, Parmesan, Feta cheese along with the lemon rind and juice. Mix well until combined and smooth.
- Line a 1lb loaf tin with clingfilm making sure that there is an overhang.
- Gently place the cooked zucchini strips on the bottom of the tin, laying them widthways with a slight overlap (this will be the top of the loaf so make it pretty!).
- Continue placing the zucchini strips around the edge of the tin, making sure that the ends are overhanding over the tin. You will be folding these over later.
- Spoon in half of the cheese mixture and spread evenly.
- Gently spread half of the pesto over the cheese mixture.
- Place the asparagus spears on top length ways.
- Repeat with the remaining pesto, cheese mixture and asparagus.
- Fold the zucchini ends over the top and add more zucchini ribbons on top to cover the terrine.
- Wrap the top of the terrine in the tin in clingfilm (if you have enough over hang this is easier)
- Place a light weight on top to compress the layers and chill for at least 2 hours.
- Unwrap the terrine and turn out onto a serving plate.
- Slice, eat and enjoy!
