Ingredients
200g Asda Tropical Granola
75ml Asda Extra Virgin Coconut Oil, melted
200g Asda Light 50% Fat Soft Cheese
500g fat-free Greek-style yogurt
7 sheets leaf gelatine
3tbsp lime cordial
2tbsp granulated sugar
1 lime, finely sliced
½ lemon, finely sliced
½ red grapefruit, finely sliced
150g lemon curd
Method
1Line a 20cm round loose-bottomed baking tin with clingfilm.
2Blitz the granola until almost smooth, or bash in a plastic bag with a rolling pin. Mix with the coconut oil and pour into the base of the tray, press with the back of a spoon and chill.
3Mix together the soft cheese and yogurt until well combined, taking care not to overbeat it.
4Soak the gelatine in cold water for 5 mins until soft. Warm the lime cordial in a pan, then remove from the heat. Squeeze excess water from the gelatine and add the sheets to the cordial. Allow to melt, then gently stir to combine.
5Fold the cordial into the yogurt mixture until evenly distributed then pour on top of the chilled granola. Cover with clingfilm and chill for at least 2 hrs or overnight, if possible.
6Dissolve the sugar in 300ml water. Add the citrus slices in batches and simmer for 1 hr. Remove from the pan and leave to dry on a cooling rack.
7Remove the cheesecake from the tin, discarding the clingfilm. Spread the lemon curd evenly over it, then top with citrus slices to serve.
