Ingredients

  • 200g pack of feta
  • 1½ tbsp clear honey
  • Glug of olive oil
  •  1 finely sliced banana shallot
  • Good pinch of chilli flakes
  •  2 garlic flatbreads
  •  Handful of chopped fresh parsley

Method

  1. Heat the oven to 200°C/180°C fan/gas 6. Put a large piece of foil on the work surface and cover with a same size piece of non-stick baking paper. Put a the whole pack of feta on top, drizzle over the honey, a glug of olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
  2. Add the shallot and a good pinch of chilli flakes. Fold up the foil and paper around the feta to form a parcel, scrunch to seal, then put on a baking tray with the flatbreads. Bake for 15 minutes, then remove the tray from the oven and put the flatbreads on a board (keep warm).
  3. Heat the grill to high, then grill the feta parcel on the tray for a few more minutes. Unwrap and serve the feta in its paper, scattered with a handful of chopped fresh parsley with the flatbreads.
