Print recipe
Serves 8

Ingredients

  • 3 - 4 red or mixture of heritage (red, yellow and green) tomatoes
  • butter or iceberg lettuce
  • 2 200 gm packages of Krinos Greek Feta Cheese
  • 2 Tbsp olive oil
  • fresh basil leaves (chopped)
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • freshly ground pepper

Directions

Slice tomatoes and arrange on serving plates with a garnish sized portion of lettuce.
Cut each block of Feta in half and then split each half through the centre into a piece that is now half the thickness of the block. You will have 8 even slices. Turn the oven on to the broil setting.
Place on cookie sheet which has been lined with parchment paper. Drizzle with oil.
A few minutes before you will sit down to dinner, heat under broiler until lightly browned. Carefully lift the warm Feta off the parchment paper and place on top of the tomatoes.
Sprinkle the chopped basil over the tomatoes and Feta. Drizzle with oil and freshly grated pepper.
