This light and creamy whipped feta dip is easy to make. It makes an ideal nibble to serve with drinks, or it's great as a simple starter. Serve with bread, pitta chips or crudités for dipping.

Buyer's guide

You can buy feta pre-packed in most supermarkets or it’s available ready-cubed in jars of oil, often flavoured with herbs.

Preparation

In Greek cooking feta is used mostly for gratins and pastries and, of course, the classic Greek salad. It holds its shape quite well so can be carefully skewered and grilled or barbecued. If you want to remove some of the saltiness, just soak the cheese in milk or water for a couple of minutes.
