Method

  1. 1

    Mix the flour and yeast with a pinch of salt, 2 tablespoons of the oil and 200ml warm water to form a soft dough, then knead for 5 minutes and leave to rise, covered, for 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Heat the oven to 220C (200C fan, gas 7). Divide the dough into 8 pieces and roll each into a thin round.

  3. 3

    Spoon the crumbled feta onto one half of each round, fold over and pinch the edges to seal.

  4. 4

    Place on baking trays and bake for 12-15 minutes until golden.

  5. 5

    Toss the diced tomatoes with the mint, lemon juice and remaining oil, and season.

  6. 6

    Serve the warm fatayer with the tomato and herb salad.
