Ingredients
 

  • 1 lb cherry tomatoes
  • 1-2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil to coat tomatoes + drizzle for bread
  • 1 1/2 cups feta cheese 250g
  • 3/4 cup of full fat sour cream
  • 1/2 cup fresh herbs small bunch of parsley, dill and 6-8 basil leaves
  • juice from half a lemon about 1 tbsp
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • Sourdough bread

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350F
  • Toss tomatoes in a bowl with olive oil and salt and pepper, lay onto a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper and roast in oven at 350F for approximately 10-12 min. or until tomatoes begin to blister
  • In the meantime, combine feta, sour cream, herbs and lemon juice in a small bowl and use a hand blender to mix together until herbs and feta are broken down a bit. (Note: If you want it to be creamier add a little more sour cream. I personally like a few chunks of feta in mine). Pour into one half of a serving bowl and set aside.
  • Once tomatoes are done, pour into the other half of the serving bowl with the whipped feta. Tear off fresh herbs and place on top if you'd like as a garnish. Let cool.
  • While the dish is cooling, turn the oven to broil, slice the sourdough bread and drizzle with olive oil and a little sprinkle of kosher salt. Broil on one side until starting to crisp than flip and do the same to the other side. Put slices of bread on a plate with a spoon for your tomato/cheese mix and spread over top and enjoy!

Notes

This dish is best eaten right after it's made. If you aren't going to eat it all, I would keep the whipped feta and tomatoes separate so you can warm the tomatoes before serving.
