This port and stilton toast is the perfect for wintry nibbles, or for serving at a festive party. Combine this classic combination snack with a little fresh salad to offset the richness of the toast.

1. To start the dish, place the shallots in a pan, pour over the port and reduce to a thick syrup. Place the Stilton, egg yolk, mustard and walnuts in a bowl, add the port syrup and mix well.

2. Place in an airtight container in the fridge until needed.

3. When ready to serve, spread the mix onto toasted wholemeal bread, then place under a medium grill until golden brown and serve immediately.

Enjoy!
