Marinated Greek feta
Ingredients
* 500g Greek feta cheese
* 1 1/2 cups olive oil
* 1/4 teaspoon cracked black pepper
* 1/2 teaspoon dried Greek oregano leaves
* 1 bay leaf
* 500g marinated Greek kalamata olives and crusty bread, to serve
Method
1. Cut feta into 2cm cubes. Place in a large, shallow ceramic dish. Combine oil, pepper, oregano and bay leaf in a jug. Pour over feta. Cover and refrigerate overnight (or longer if time permits).
2. Serve feta on mezze plates with olives, skordalia (see related recipe) and crusty bread.
Notes & tips
* Note: Refrigeration makes oil 'cloudy'. Remove feta from fridge 1 hour before serving to restore oil clarity.
* Dried Greek oregano is available from most delis and keeps for 1 year in an airtight container.
