Ingredients

Roasted Grapes

  • 1/2 bunch grapes, picked off the stalks
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Salt & Pepper
  • A few sprigs of fresh thyme
  • 1 block Danish fetta
  • 1 egg
  • 3/4 cup breadcrumbs (panko or regular)
  • Big pinch flaky salt
  • 4-5 tablespoons olive oil
  • Honey, to serve
  • Fresh oregano and thyme, optional, to serve
  • Crusty bread, toasted to serve

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F). Place grapes in an even layer on a baking tray and drizzle with olive oil. Scatter with salt, pepper and thyme leaves. Roast for 15-20 minutes until the grapes are softened and have released some juice.
  2. In the meantime, make the crumbed feta.
  3. Place the egg into a flat-bottomed bowl and whisk lightly. Add the breadcrumbs and a big pinch of salt to a second bowl. Dip the feta into the egg and then transfer to the second bowl. Press gently into the bread crumbs on all sides to evenly coat.
  4. Heat olive oil in a fry pan over medium heat. Cook the feta for about 3 minutes each front and back and then carefully turn to cook the other sides until golden brown.
  5. Transfer to a plate to serve. Place roasted grapes around and on top of the feta, spooning over the grape juices. Scatter with fresh oregano and thyme. Serve immediately with a good drizzling of honey and toasted bread.
