SPICY FETA DRESSING FOR BROCCOLI


SPICY FETA DRESSING


200 gm Feta
1 or 2 cloves garlic crushed and finely chopped
1/4 Tbsp chilli paste or more according to taste or use fresh, finely chopped chilli
2 Tbs chopped parsley
1 Tbs chopped oregano 
1 Tbs chopped lemon balm
1 Tbs chopped thyme leaves
Sea salt
Fresh ground black pepper
2 Tbs olive oil
Zest of 1 lemon and juice to taste
or 2 Tbs white wine vinegar

Mash feta adding herbs and spices. Mix in olive oil and lemon juice until satisfied with taste and texture.

At this point the mixture was more like a spread. Serve on crackers or use as a stuffing under the skin of chicken. I imagine that would be really, really yummy.

I thinned the amount we wanted for our meal with a little milk and honey mustard dressing. I thought it needed a touch of sweetness to counteract the vinegar.

Serve with broccoli or other freshly cooked veggies.
