Cheddar Crisps with Roasted Grape Relish

These sophisticated Cheddar crisps with roasted grape relish offer a delightful contrast of textures and flavours, making them an excellent choice for a vegetarian appetiser. The base is a buttery, sharp cheese biscuit, which provides a crisp and savoury foundation for the vibrant topping. By oven-roasting the red grapes, their natural sugars caramelise, creating a jammy sweetness that pairs beautifully with the salty tang of green olives and a hint of citrus zest.

Perfect for dinner parties or festive gatherings, this homemade snack is both elegant and easy to assemble. The addition of toasted pine nuts and finely chopped celery provides a refreshing crunch, while the red wine vinegar cuts through the richness of the cheese. Serve these colourful bites as a stylish starter or part of a celebratory buffet to impress your guests with a unique flavour profile.

How to make Cheddar Crisps with Roasted Grape Relish

Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 204°C.

Blend Cheddar, flour, and cayenne in a food processor until combined well. Add butter and blend until dough starts to clump, about 30 seconds. Turn out onto work surface and gently knead until combined well. Using palms of your hands, roll dough into a 3/4-inch-thick rope (about 20 inches long). Cut rope into 24 equal pieces and press each piece onto bottom and halfway up side of a muffin cup.

Bake until golden and slightly puffed in centres, about 10 minutes. Cool in pan on a rack 10 minutes, then invert onto rack to cool completely. Leave oven on.

Toss grapes with salt, pepper, and 1 teaspoon oil in a bowl, then roast on a foil-lined baking sheet until shriveled, about 25 minutes. Cool to room temperature on sheet on a rack.

Toss together grapes, olives, celery, onion, jalapeño, garlic, zest, vinegar, pine nuts, and remaining 2 tablespoons oil. Spoon relish onto cheese crisps and serve immediately.
