Whipped Feta Cheese

Pistachio Dukkah

Charred Blood Orange

Pita Bread

Method

Whipped Feta Cheese

  1. 1

    Prepare the Feta Mixture

    In a food processor, combine feta cheese, cream cheese, olive oil, lemon juice, and garlic clove. Blend until smooth and creamy.

  2. 2

    Season the Mixture

    Add black pepper and salt to taste. Blend again briefly to combine. Transfer to a serving bowl.

Pistachio Dukkah

  1. 3

    Toast the Spices

    In a dry skillet over medium heat, toast the coriander seeds, cumin seeds, and sesame seeds until fragrant, about 3-4 minutes. Stir frequently to avoid burning.

  2. 4

    Blend the Dukkah

    Remove the toasted seeds from heat and let them cool slightly. In a food processor, combine the toasted seeds with pistachios and blend until coarsely ground. Season with salt to taste.

Charred Blood Orange

  1. 5

    Prepare the Oranges

    Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Slice the blood oranges in half.

  2. 6

    Char the Oranges

    Brush the cut sides of the blood oranges with olive oil and sprinkle with salt. Place the oranges cut-side down on the grill and cook for about 3-4 minutes until charred.

  3. 7

    Remove from Grill

    Remove the charred oranges from the grill and let them cool slightly before serving.

Pita Bread

  1. 8

    Warm the Pita

    Warm the pita bread on the grill for about 1-2 minutes on each side until soft and slightly toasted.
