Baked Cumin Feta with a Balsamic Glaze

This could be a great starter or just a fantastic dish to have alongside pitta bread, salads etc.
It takes 20mins to do.

RECIPE BELOW:


  • 1 200gm block of feta  9 (will serve 2 as a starter)
  • 1 small onion, softened in a little oil for 5mins
  • 1tsp cumin seeds, dry toasted in a hot pan for 30secs
  • 1 garlic clove, finely sliced
  • 1tsp balsamic glaze
  • 1 tbs white wine
 TO MAKE:

Place feta on a double lined piece of foil & cover with the onion & cumin seeds. Add the splash of wine & drizzle with the balsamic glaze. Fold up into a parcel and bake in the oven at 180C for 15-20mins.  Eat.

Alternatively, cover the cheese with some chopped peppers (again briefly softened first), thyme/marjoram, and olive oil before baking, for a more mediterranean vibe. It would also be great with tomatoes, finely sliced fennel & crushed red chilli.  It's defintely worth trying out a few possibilities next time you have some feta in the house.
