Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 5

6 pitta breads
200g pack feta cheese
20g pack flat-leaf parsley or mint, leaves roughly chopped
vegetable crudités
houmous , tzatziki and other favourite dips, to serve

Steps:

  • Toast the pittas in a toaster until they're just under-done - puffed up but not yet crisp - then leave to cool for a few mins. Meanwhile, using a fork, mash the feta in a large bowl. Stir in the herbs and lots of black pepper.
  • Cut a slit along one edge of each pitta, then spoon in the feta. Spread it out over the inside of the bread with the back of the spoon or a cutlery knife. Can be prepared up to 1 day ahead and kept covered in the fridge.
  • To serve, re-toast the pittas, cut-side up, in the toaster until the bread is just crisp, then leave to cool for 2 mins before cutting into wedges. Best eaten within 30 mins of toasting.
