Cilantro Mousse
I rarely like anything "molded" or congealed, but this stuff is damn good! * Exported from MasterCook *
Cilantro Mousse
Serving Size : 6 Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method -------- ------------ -------------------------------- 1 8 oz. pkg. cream cheese (LF would probably work, but not FF) 1/2 c. mayonnaise (LF or lite would probably work) 1 bunch cilantro -- washed and stemmed 1/2 c. water 1 serrano chili 1 clove garlic 1 envelope unflavored gelatin
Have all ingredients ready to roll before you begin.
Dissolve gelatin in 1/4 c. cold water. Then add 1/4 cup BOILING water. Mix well (very quickly). Put all ingredients, including gelatin, into food processor and pulse to chop/mix. When all is thoroughly mixed, pour into mold. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate 4 hours to overnight.
Serve with crackers/melba toast, sliced of mixed breads, with Tostada chip "cups" or celery sticks... or whatever suits ya!
This is SPICY HOT, unless you use a milder pepper, but REAL tasty!
