Can I make the dip in advance?

You sure can! This dip keeps really well in a covered container in the fridge for at least 5 days. It'll firm up a little when it's cold, but just give it a mix as you're going to serve it. It's best served at room temperature.

What can I serve the dip with?

This is such a versatile dip! I love using it as a dip with crackers (try it with sourdough discard crackers ), pita chips or crudites. But it’s also brilliant on sandwiches, with barbecued chicken, pork or steak, as a pasta sauce, tossed through pasta salad, as dressing for potato salad, as dressing for a slaw…the possibilities are endless.

Instructions

Make the dip. Break your feta into a few pieces then add them to the bowl of a food processor along with the 2 pieces of red pepper, 1 tablespoon of olive oil and 1/2 tablespoon of lemon juice. Blitz for two minutes, until lovely and smooth. You may need to scrap the sides down a couple of times, depending on the power of your food processor.
Garnish and serve. Pile the dip into a small bowl and top with the chopped red pepper then and finish by sprinkling 1 tablespoon of dukkah over the top.

Notes

STORAGE INSTRUCTIONS: You can make this up to 5 days in advance (I always do when I’m prepping this for parties!). Just keep it in the fridge in an airtight container. It will firm up a bit so just give it a little stir before you serve it.

SERVING SUGGESTIONS: I love serving this with homemade baked pita chips or sourdough crackers, or with a pile of fresh no knead chilli cheese focaccia, rosemary parmesan bread, soft flatbreads or crudites.
