Greek Tirokafteri (Spicy Cheese Dip)

This is a traditional spicy cheese dish, which can be served as a meze with ouzo or beer, or as a dip. It is quick and easy to make.

Ingredients...
2 ounces green chili peppers (the variety which is about 20cm long)

½ kg feta cheese
¼ kg ricotta cheese (Greek anthotiro is better, if you can get it)
3 teaspoonfuls lemon juice
100ml extra virgin olive oil

Preparation

Wash the peppers, remove the stalk and the seeds and cut them in two.

Boil them for a quarter of an hour until the skin separates from the body and then remove the skin (use gloves to do that otherwise you will suffer an unpleasant hot feeling in your hands).

Put them with the rest of the ingredients in a liquidizer and mix them well.

Place it in a bowl and serve with grilled or fried vegetables or as a dip.

Eat and Enjoy!
