Ingredients

• 200 grams feta cheese
• 2 medium roasted red peppers
• 60 grams Greek yogurt
• 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
• 1 small garlic clove
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon red chili flakes
• 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

Step 1

In a food processor or blender, crumble the feta cheese into small chunks for easier blending.

Step 2

Add the roasted red peppers (drain any excess liquid if using jarred peppers), Greek yogurt, and olive oil to the food processor.

Step 3

Peel and mince the garlic clove and add it to the mixture.

Step 4

Squeeze in fresh lemon juice for a bright and tangy flavor.

Step 5

Sprinkle in the red chili flakes, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper.

Step 6

Blend the mixture until smooth and creamy. Stop occasionally to scrape down the sides of the food processor to ensure even blending.

Step 7

Taste the dip and adjust the seasoning as needed. Add a pinch more chili flakes for extra heat, or a little more olive oil for a creamier texture.

Step 8

Transfer the dip to a serving bowl and drizzle with a little extra olive oil on top for presentation. Optional: garnish with a sprinkle of smoked paprika or crumbled feta.

Step 9

Serve immediately with warm pita bread, crackers, or fresh vegetables for dipping. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
