Pickled blackberry and whipped feta tartines
These open sandwiches are topped with silky smooth whipped feta, piquant quick-pickled blackberries and peppery rocket leaves – a trio of flavours that come together in perfect harmony. They look pretty charming too, don’t you think?
Ingreadient
- 1 tsp caster sugar
- 1 tsp fine sea salt
- 4 tbsp white wine vinegar
- 150g blackberries
- 4 slices sourdough or crusty bread
- Small handful rocket
- 200g feta
- 150g greek yogurt
- 2 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil, plus extra for drizzling
Instruction
- Combine the sugar, salt and vinegar in a bowl then stir in the blackberries. Set aside to quick pickle for at least 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, make the whipped feta. Put the feta and yogurt in a food processor and whizz until smooth. Continue processing while drizzling in the olive oil until incorporated. Season to taste with salt and pepper, then add an extra swirl of oil.
- Toast or grill the bread until golden and crisp. Spread the whipped feta onto the toast, then spoon over the pickled blackberries and scatter over some rocket leaves. Drizzle with a little extra oil.
