Ingredients
- 1 tbsp sesame seeds, toasted
- 200g block feta
- 2 tbsp honey, plus extra to serve
- 1 tsp roughly chopped oregano
- Sea salt
- Olive oil, for drizzling
- warmed pitta breads, to serve
Method
1. Heat the oven to 200°C/Fan 180°C/Gas Mark 6, or if using an air-fryer, heat to 180°C for 3 minutes. Put the sesame seeds in a shallow dish, then brush the block of feta all over with the honey. Carefully press the honey-coated feta into the sesame seeds, turning so that it is well crusted with seeds.
2. Put the feta in a baking dish (it should fit snugly), then sprinkle with the oregano and a pinch of sea salt. Drizzle with some olive oil. Bake in the oven for 15 - 20 minutes, or cook in the air-fryer for 15 minutes until the feta is soft. Drizzle with a little extra honey and serve with the pitta breads on the side.
