Method

  • step 1

    Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6, or if using an air-fryer, heat to 180C for 3 mins. Put the sesame seeds in a shallow dish and brush the block of feta all over with the honey. Carefully press the honey-coated feta into the sesame seeds, turning so that it’s well crusted with seeds.

  • step 2

    Put the feta in a baking dish (it should fit snugly), then sprinkle over the oregano and a pinch of sea salt. Drizzle with some olive oil. Bake in the oven for 15-20 mins, or cook in the air-fryer for 15 mins until the feta is soft, then drizzle with a little extra honey and serve with the pitta breads on the side.

Can you make this a day ahead and keep in the fridge?

question

My daughter cannot have sesame seeds. What seeds could be used as an alternative or can they be left off althogether. I like the idea of the texture of the seeds.

Hello, we have only tested this recipe with sesame seeds but you could try swapping them for poppy seeds or flax seeds. Thanks for your question - Good Food Team

I wanted a low effort dinner so chopped and roasted the vegetables I had in the fridge and added this feta to the middle of the tray for the last 15mins. Delicious.

Can you eat this cold?

Of course. But that would defeat the point of baking it…
