How to make Fruity Cottage Cheese Canapes

For brown bread canapes-

Take 16 bread slices of brown bread. Take a biscuit cutter or kulfi mould cap and cut slices into two halves to get 32 small circles of two inches diameter. Butter the canapes very lightly on one side. Heat oven to 210 degree C. Place canapes on the grill rack. Grill for five minutes or till golden crisp. Cool the canapes on a big tray so that they shouldn’t overlap. Store in an air tight container. They can be stored for two to three days. Though, freshly made are best.

For topping-To prepare cottage cheese

Boil half a litre milk. Give a boil and reduce the flame.

Add half cup of fresh yogurt and let the milk curdle.

Remove from heat. Strain through strainer and keep the cottage cheese aside.

Blend it to a smooth paste in a mixer.

Add all ingredients of the toppings to cottage cheese.

Mix well to make a spread and chill in refrigerator.

While serving time, spread this topping on bread canapes and garnish with slices of varied fresh or tinned fruits according to your taste.

Place a mint leaf on every canapé. You can make it more attractive with your imagination.

The combination of fruits and cottage cheese tastes divine!
