Ingredients
- 200 grams Feta cheese
- 120 grams Greek yogurt
- 2 cloves Garlic cloves
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Fresh lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt (optional)
Directions
Step 1
Peel the garlic cloves and mince them finely or use a garlic press to ensure the garlic is well broken down.
Step 2
In a food processor or blender, combine the feta cheese, Greek yogurt, minced garlic, olive oil, lemon juice, and dried oregano.
Step 3
Blend the mixture until smooth and creamy. If the dip is too thick, you can thin it out with a small amount of water, one teaspoon at a time, until you reach the desired consistency.
Step 4
Taste the dip and adjust seasoning if necessary by adding a pinch of salt or more black pepper.
Step 5
Transfer the finished dip to a serving bowl and drizzle a little olive oil on top for garnish.
Step 6
Optional: Sprinkle some additional oregano or freshly chopped parsley for decoration.
Step 7
Serve immediately with pita bread, crackers, or fresh vegetables, or refrigerate for up to two days in an airtight container.
