Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams Feta cheese
- 120 grams Greek yogurt
- 2 cloves Garlic cloves
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Fresh lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt (optional)
Instructions
Peel the garlic cloves and mince them finely or use a garlic press to ensure the garlic is well broken down.
In a food processor or blender, combine the feta cheese, Greek yogurt, minced garlic, olive oil, lemon juice, and dried oregano.
Blend the mixture until smooth and creamy. If the dip is too thick, you can thin it out with a small amount of water, one teaspoon at a time, until you reach the desired consistency.
Taste the dip and adjust seasoning if necessary by adding a pinch of salt or more black pepper.
Transfer the finished dip to a serving bowl and drizzle a little olive oil on top for garnish.
Optional: Sprinkle some additional oregano or freshly chopped parsley for decoration.
Serve immediately with pita bread, crackers, or fresh vegetables, or refrigerate for up to two days in an airtight container.
