Ingredients

  • 1 block L’Ancêtre Organic Feta (150 g)
  • 2 cups cherry tomatoes
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 3 whole garlic cloves, peeled
  • 1 tsp dried oregano

Creamy, vibrant and packed with Mediterranean flavours, this easy appetizer features L’Ancêtre Organic Feta baked with cherry tomatoes, garlic and olive oil until soft and irresistible. Mash everything together for a warm dip that’s perfect with crusty bread, crackers or fresh vegetables.

Preparation

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Place the block of feta in the centre of a baking dish. Arrange the cherry tomatoes and garlic around it.
  3. Drizzle generously with olive oil. Sprinkle with oregano, chili flakes if using, and black pepper.
  4. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, until the tomatoes have burst and the feta is soft. Broil for 2 to 3 minutes for a lightly golden finish.
  5. Using a fork, mash the feta, roasted tomatoes and garlic together directly in the baking dish until creamy.
  6. Top with fresh basil and a drizzle of olive oil before serving.

Serve warm with toasted bread, crackers or fresh vegetables. Leftovers are also delicious tossed with pasta or spread on toasted bread.
