  • Whipped Feta

    Whipped feta is great as a dip, spread in a sandwich, or on toast with tomato and cracked pepper. I have even added lumps of it to pasta and salads.

    In a food processor, combine the following until smooth:

    • 350 gm feta
    • 125 gm sour cream (1 pottle)
    • a good drizzle of olive or other oil
    • fresh herbs such as rosemary, oregano or basil (optional)
    • other flavourings (optional) – sundried tomato, olives, capers, the choice is yours

    Feel free to experiment with the flavours – you could add beetroot or spinach if you want, it’s entirely up to you!

    This doesn’t last long in our house – 1 batch is normally gone in a day or two.

  • Coriander, Lime, and Honey Dressing

    This is a quick and tasty salad dressing.

    In a food processor or blender (I use a nutri-bullet) mix the following til smooth.

    • 1 cup of Coriander – leaves and some stems
    • 1/4 cup of Mint Leaves
    • 1 teaspoon of Honey
    • 1/4 cup Lime Juice (you can also use apple cider vinegar or a mix of the two)
    • 1/4 cup of Oil – I use sunflower or canola
    • Pepper
    • a dash of water if needed

    I use this dressing on my Black Rice and Corn Salad but it is great on many salads.
