Honey Whipped Baked Pumpkin Feta Dip

Honey whipped baked pumpkin feta dip is pumpkin pie's savory cousin, made for toast: thick slices of a small 400 g pumpkin roast in individual foil parcels for 20 minutes at 180 °C, then blend with 200 g of feta, half a teaspoon of salt, a third each of nutmeg and black pepper, and three raw garlic cloves for bite. The deep-gold purée chills until firm and comes back cold and thick, topped with roasted pumpkin pieces, a ribbon of honey and walnuts — feta with honey being a Greek classic for a reason. Pan-crisped toast brings the crunch. Serves 4.

Whipped Feta with Olives & Roasted Garlic

Whipped feta with olives and roasted garlic is a food-processor dip with one oven trick: a whole head of garlic, top off, roasts in a foil parcel with thyme and olive oil for 20 minutes at 200 °C until every clove turns sweet. Into the processor go a full cup of drained mixed olives — the deep, savory edge — 200 g of feta for the tangy, salty backbone, the squeezed roasted cloves, and chili flakes to wake it all back up. Blended light and spreadable, finished with basil and olive oil, it takes minutes and feeds the whole table. Butter-toasted bread is all it needs. Serves 4.

Crunchy Corn Salad

Crunchy corn salad is built on air-fryer roasted corn: foil-steamed cobs roll over a block of butter (the hot cob melts its own path), get dusted with garlic powder and Herbes de Provence, roast 10 more minutes bare, then the kernels are shaved into a bowl of cucumber, red onion, halved cherry tomatoes and feta with a tangy sour-cream-yogurt dressing. BBQ-ready in 40 minutes. Serves 4.

Crispy Rice Paper Garlic Cheese Pockets

Air fry these rice paper garlic cheese pockets at 180°C (350°F) for 15 minutes. Soften each rice paper sheet in an egg-and-soy-sauce bath, spoon in a filling of 200 g feta, 100 g cheddar, 4 crushed garlic cloves and 1 egg, then fold into a triangle and air fry. The garlic mellows as it cooks for a rich, punchy hit, while the outside turns paper-thin crisp around a gooey, molten-cheese centre.

Rice Paper Feta Burek

This burek-style cheese spiral swaps phyllo for rice paper, which crisps in the air fryer with no butter brushing between layers. Dipping the sheets in beaten egg rather than plain water is the key move: the egg softens the paper just enough to roll and helps it blister into a crackly golden shell. Crumbled feta is bound with an egg and shredded mozzarella so the filling stays put as the spiral cooks. Overlap two or three softened sheets into one long base, roll the filling into a log, coil it, and scatter sesame seeds over the top. Fifteen minutes at 180°C (350°F) takes it to golden and crisp.

Breakfast Tortilla Plate

Think of this as a quick quiche with a tortilla standing in for pastry. Pressed into a silicone mold, the tortilla crisps underneath while the eggs bake, so the finished pie lifts out and slices cleanly. Layer fresh spinach, diced ham and crumbled feta on the base. Pour over three beaten eggs with a pinch of salt, then scatter halved cherry tomatoes on top. Air fry at 170°C (325°F) for 30–35 minutes. The moderate heat keeps the eggs tender; the pie is done when the centre feels just set, with no jiggle. Any cooked meat can stand in for the ham.
