Feta Marinated with Herbs and Chilli

Name: Feta Marinated with Herbs and Chilli
Prep time: 5 min
Total time: 5 min
Yield: 4 porsi
Cuisine: Indonesian
Ingredients: 8 oz / 250 g feta cheese (, preferably Danish or another creamy type (see notes)); 1/2 cup extra virgin oil; 2 g arlic cloves (, peeled); 2 tbsp herbs (, finely chopped. (I used parsley and thyme leaves)); 1 birds eye chilli (, finely chopped (or any fresh red chilli of choice)); 1//4 tsp lemon rind (, finely grated); Black pepper

A cost effective starter that tastes as delightful as it looks and takes minutes to prepare. You could also make this just by serving a whole block of feta, but cutting it into cubes makes it easier to serve and also you get a better feta/olive oil/herb ratio with every bite!

Langkah-langkah

Infuse olive oil with garlic (optional): use the side of your knife to smash the garlic cloves and combine with the olive oil. Cover, refrigerate and leave for as long as possible - a few hours or preferably overnight.
If you do not have the time to do Step 1, just mince 1 garlic clove (small) and stir into the olive oil.
Cut the feta into bite size cubes - about 1cm / 1/3 inch.
Place feta into serving dish, scatter over herbs, chilli, lemon rind and a grind of black pepper.
Pour over olive oil. Serve with crusty bread.
