Ingredients

Baked feta with roasted garlic, chilli and olives

Method

1.Preheat oven to 180°C.
2.Place garlic and half the oil in a small ovenproof dish (ensure garlic is completely covered by oil). Cover with foil; bake 30 minutes or until tender. Cool slightly.
3.Increase oven to 200°C. Pat feta dry with paper towel. Cut feta into 4cm thick slices; place in an ovenproof serving dish, just large enough for feta to fit in a single layer. Pour garlic in oil and remaining oil over feta; top with herbs, olives and chilli.
4.Bake for 40 minutes or until feta is soft and lightly browned. Top with extra oregano; serve with pitta.

To peel garlic quickly, remove a little bit from the base of each garlic clove; microwave on high for 10 seconds. Or to save time, buy ready-peeled garlic. You may want to pour a little of the oil off to serve, however don’t discard it as it will keep in the fridge for up to 2 weeks and can be used in salad dressings.
