MARINATED GREEK FETA



Marinated Greek Feta image

I found this simple, super-quick-to-make recipe for Marinated Greek Feta in the November 2005 issue of the Australian magazine 'Super Food Ideas'. It was one of several recipes for entertaining guests with a Greek banquet. I have posted it for the 2005 Zaar World Tour. The preparation time does not include the overnight chilling time.

Time 5m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

500 g Greek feta cheese
1 1/2 cups olive oil
1/4 cup cracked black pepper
1/2 teaspoon dried greek oregano leaves
1 bay leaf
500 g marinated greek kalamata olives
crusty bread, to serve

Steps:

  • Cut the feta cheese into 2cm cubes and place them in a shallow, ceramic dish. Combine the oil, pepper, oregano and bay leaf in a jug, pour this over the feta and cover and refrigerate overnight (or longer if time permits).
  • Serve the feta on a mezze platter with olives, skordalia (recipe posted separately) and crusty bread.
  • Note: Refrigeration makes oil "cloudy". If you remove the marinated feta from the refrigerator 1 hour before serving, the "cloudiness" will disperse, and the oil will be clear.

GREAT APPETIZER: OVEN BAKED FETA WITH TOMATOES & PEPPERS



Great appetizer: Oven Baked Feta with Tomatoes & Peppers image

A classic recipe from Northern Greece that is ready in just 30 minutes!

Provided by Marilena Leavitt

Categories     Appetizer

Time 30m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 7

8 ripe pearl tomatoes, or, 1 large vine-ripened tomato
4 TBSP. extra virgin olive oil
--- sea salt & crushed red pepper flakes
½ medium green bell pepper (or 2 sweet banana peppers)
2 thick slices of Greek Feta (about 6 oz.)
1 tsp. dried Greek oregano
4 slices of hearty multigrain bread, grilled

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425˚F.
  • Slice the pearl tomatoes horizontally (each one in four pieces) and place on paper towels to drain. (If you are using one large tomato, cut the end pieces and slice the rest in six slices). After 3-4 minutes, turn them over and place on new paper towels. Cut the pepper into four rings and set aside.
  • Oil well a small, shallow ceramic baking dish (or four individual ceramic ramekins) and place half of the tomato slices at the bottom. Sprinkle with some sea salt and crushed pepper flakes. Top with half the bell pepper slices.
  • Arrange the two Feta pieces on top of the tomato/pepper layer, place the remaining tomato slices on top of each piece of cheese, and place the rest of the bell pepper rings on the tomato. Drizzle liberally with the extra virgin olive oil, sprinkle with oregano and some more pepper flakes, and transfer to the middle of the oven.
  • Bake for about 25 minutes, or until the feta turns a light-golden color and the oil is sizzling. If you want to deepen the color, you can place the dish under the broiler for 1-2 minutes at the end of the cooking time.
  • Brush some olive oil on the slices of good, multigrain bread, and grill on both sides. Serve the baked feta immediately with some warm grilled bread.

Tips:

  • Choose the right peppers: For roasting, select firm, ripe bell peppers with smooth skin and vibrant colors. This will ensure a flavorful and visually appealing dish.
  • Roast the peppers to perfection: Roasting the peppers over high heat until they are slightly charred gives them a smoky, caramelized flavor. Keep an eye on them to prevent burning.
  • Use a flavorful marinade: The marinade is essential for infusing the peppers with delicious flavors. Experiment with different herbs, spices, and citrus to create a marinade that suits your taste.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When roasting the peppers, make sure to spread them out in a single layer on the baking sheet. Overcrowding can prevent even cooking and result in soggy peppers.
  • Let the peppers cool before handling: Once roasted, the peppers will be very hot. Allow them to cool slightly before peeling and slicing to prevent burning yourself.
  • Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh, high-quality ingredients will make a big difference in the overall flavor of the dish. Look for ripe, flavorful tomatoes, succulent olives, and tangy feta cheese.

Conclusion:

Greek Marinated Roasted Peppers, Olives, and Feta is a delightful Mediterranean-inspired dish that is both flavorful and visually appealing. With its vibrant colors, smoky roasted peppers, and tangy marinade, this dish is sure to impress your taste buds. Serve it as an appetizer, side dish, or even as a vegetarian main course. Experiment with different marinades and toppings to create your own unique variation of this delicious dish. Enjoy the burst of Mediterranean flavors with every bite!
