Top Tips
Here is how you can make this feta dip perfectly every time!
- Greek yogurt has a lovely thick texture, however, when you blend it, it becomes very runny and thin. Blending only half the yogurt and stirring through the remainder ensures the final dip is silky and thick.
- Depending on your love of feta you can absolutely increase the amount of cheese in this recipe for a stronger feta flavour.
- Fresh Vegetables that go well with this dip include: Carrots (raw or roasted), Cucumbers, Grilled Eggplant or Mushrooms, Cheery tomatoes
- More than a dip: Try this recipe drizzled over a salad (it's great with my chickpea avocado salad) or as a condiment in your next sandwich, burger or wrap.
- Store your feta dip in a clean airtight container or jar for up to five days in the refrigerator.
