INGREDIENTS

For the baked almond feta

250g blanched almonds

120ml cold water

Juice of 1 lemon

3 tbsp olive oil

1 garlic clove, peeled

1 tsp sea salt

1 tbsp nutritional yeast (yeast flakes)

1 tsp agar-agar powder

60ml warm water

2 tsp dried oregano

1 tsp dried thyme

1 tsp apple cider vinegar

Grated zest of 1/2 lemon

For the balsamic-roasted grapes

  • 1 large bunch red grapes
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp balsamic vinegar
  • Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • A few sprigs fresh thyme leaves, plus extra to garnish

Yields 4-8 servings

DIRECTIONS

For the baked almond feta

  • 1. Soak the almonds in cold water overnight, or boil in a small saucepan of water for 15 minutes. Drain and rinse.
  • 2. Place the soaked almonds in a high-speed blender, along with the cold water, lemon juice, olive oil, garlic, salt and nutritional yeast, and process until smooth. Transfer the mixture to a mixing bowl.
  • 3. In a small pan, dissolve the agar-agar powder in the warm water, bring to the boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 2–3 minutes.
  • 4. Remove from the heat and whisk into the almond mixture, along with the dried herbs, apple cider vinegar and lemon zest.
  • 5. Line a small, rounded bowl with cheesecloth and spoon the almond mixture into the cheesecloth, smoothing out the top with the back of a spoon.
  • 6. Fold over the edges of the cheesecloth to cover and chill in the refrigerator overnight.
  • 7. The next day, preheat the oven to 190°C (170°C Fan/375°F/Gas 5) and line a baking tray with baking paper.
  • 8. Gently remove the cheesecloth and transfer the almond feta to the baking tray. Bake for 40 minutes, until lightly golden and the top is firm.

For the balsamic-roasted grapes

  • 1. Toss the grapes in the oil, balsamic vinegar, salt, pepper and thyme leaves, then transfer to a roasting dish.
  • 2. Roast in the hot oven for 15 minutes (ideally when the almond feta has been in the oven for 25 minutes, so they are both ready at the same time).
  • 3. Allow to cool, then transfer the baked almond feta to a serving dish, top with the roasted grapes and garnish with a few thyme sprigs. Serve with crusty bread.
