Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 7 ounces Feta Cheese 200g, crumbled, preferably in brine
  • 8 ounces Cream Cheese 225g, softened to room temperature
  • 1 tablespoon Olive Oil 15ml, for whipping
  • 1/2 cup Pimento-Stuffed Green Olives 75g, sliced into rounds
  • 1/4 cup Roasted Red Peppers 40g, diced small
  • 2 tablespoons Fresh Parsley 8g, finely chopped
  • 1/2 tsp Lemon Zest Freshly grated
  • 1 tablespoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil For drizzling

Equipment

  • 1 Food Processor Or high-speed blender
  • 1 Shallow Ceramic Bowl For serving

Method
 

Whip the Cheese Base
  1. Place the softened cream cheese, crumbled feta, and 1 tablespoon of olive oil into a food processor. Process on high for 2-3 minutes until the mixture is ultra-smooth and airy.
  2. Scrape down the sides and pulse again if any lumps remain. The base should be thick but light and fluffy.
Assemble the Dip
  1. Spread the whipped cheese into a shallow ceramic bowl, using a spoon to create deep swirls and textured crevices on the surface.
  2. Generously layer the sliced green olives, diced roasted red peppers, and chopped parsley over the whipped base. Sprinkle with lemon zest.
  3. Drizzle the remaining extra virgin olive oil over the top, allowing it to pool in the crevices of the cheese.

Notes

Ensure cream cheese is room temperature for a smooth texture.
Pat the olives and peppers dry before topping to prevent a watery dip.
