Instructions marinated feta with sun dried tomatoes

  • Heat two types of oil. As soon as they are very hot but not boiling add fresh thyme, mint leaves and garlic, all minced. Also add lemon zest, just enough ground black pepper and the chopped sun dried tomatoes.
  • Cut your feta into cubes. Place in a bowl, glass container or jar. As soon as the oil becomes cold, pour the prepared marinade over it.
  • Cover and place in the refrigerator for at least 12 hours (preferably 24 hours). Once you want to use your feta, take it out of the fridge. If your oil thickens, just leave the cheese at room temperature until the oil becomes liquid again.
