Feta Cheese Fasolakia

    Lift the feta cheese out, soften the onion and garlic in the same pot, then add the dried oregano.

  3. 3

    Return the feta cheese, tip in the potato and carrot, and pour over the stock.

  4. 4

    Cover and let it murmur gently for 35-40 minutes until everything is spoon-tender and the broth has body.

    Season with salt and cracked pepper, then shower with fresh dill right before serving.

Chef's tip

For deeper flavour, toast the dried oregano in the oil before adding anything wet.
