- 2 tablespoons Fresh dill
- 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley
- 0.5 teaspoon Red chili flakes
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt

Instructions
In a food processor, crumble the feta cheese into smaller pieces to ensure smooth blending.

Chop the fresh dill and parsley finely, then add them to the processed mixture. Pulse a few times to incorporate the herbs without over-mixing.
