Bouyiourdi – Greek Baked Feta
Bouyiourdi is a classic Greek oven feta: the cheese is baked in the oven with tomatoes, peppers, onions, olive oil and a little chili - spicy, creamy and ideal for dipping with bread or as a warm side dish. Simply put it in a small dish and bake it briefly - that's all you need.
