Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 100 grams Feta cheese, crumbled
- 120 ml Greek yogurt
- 60 ml Extra virgin olive oil
- 30 ml Fresh lemon juice
- 1 clove Garlic, minced
- 10 ml Honey
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper, freshly ground
- 15 ml Water (optional, for thinning)
Instructions
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the crumbled feta cheese and Greek yogurt. Use a fork to mash and blend them together until smooth.
Gradually whisk in the olive oil until the mixture becomes creamy and emulsified.
Add the lemon juice, minced garlic, honey, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to combine all ingredients.
If the dressing is too thick for your preference, add water 1 teaspoon at a time, whisking after each addition, until the desired consistency is reached.
Taste the dressing and adjust seasoning if needed by adding more salt, pepper, or lemon juice.
Transfer the dressing to a sealed jar or container and store in the refrigerator until ready to use. Shake well before serving.
