FETA CHEESE BALL RECIPE



Feta Cheese Ball Recipe image

Feta cheese is simply a type of cheese we adore in Greece. That is why you will see many recipes with it....

Provided by Vasiliki

Categories     Recipes

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 8

250gr Feta cheese
2 tablespoons cream cheese
15 black peppercorns
15 green peppercorns
120gr sesame seeds (optional)
100gr walnuts ( optional)
For this recipe you will require:
3 mixing bowls, 1 baking tray, parchment paper, mortar and pestle

Steps:

  • Start by assembling your ingredients and kitchen utensils.
  • Line a baking tray with parchment paper and lay the walnuts and sesame seeds. Bake them for 10 minutes at 160C or 320F on the middle shelf of the oven.
  • Chop the walnuts in a food processor (not to finely though, avoid powder form).
  • Add the chopped walnuts in one mixing bowl and the sesame seeds in another one.
  • Crush the black and green peppercorns in a mortar. I prefer to crush the peppercorns instead of using ground pepper as they are more flavoursome.
  • In a third, separate bowl, add the crumbled Feta cheese, crushed peppercorns and cream cheese. Combine ingredients either with your hands or with a wooden spoon.
  • Take a tablespoon worth of mixture and shape into a ball. At this point you have the choice to either dust the cream cheese balls with walnuts and sesame seeds as I do or you can simply chill them as they are. They will taste fantastic either way.
  • Helpful tip: Your hand are bound to be sticky in-between shaping the cheese balls. I will share with you a helpful tip. If you are going to cover the cream cheese balls with walnuts and sesame seeds then simply wipe your hands with kitchen roll, if not, then oil your hands in between shaping. The reason for that is very simple. If you shape these appetisers with oily hands, the walnut and sesame seeds will not stick to them.
  • Now, place 3-4 cheese balls in the walnut bowl and shake it until the appetisers are covered by walnuts. Repeat the same process with the sesame seed bowl.
  • Chill them in the fridge for at leat 30 minutes.
  • Enjoy!
