Instructions

Add all ingredients except olive oil to a food processor and process until you have a paste like consistency. Add olive oil and process until the desired thickness and texture is reached.

Notes

Always buy feta in a block whenever possible and crumble as you need it. I don’t know why but it tastes so much better than pre-crumbled!
