• 200 grams/7 grams of feta cheese
• 3 celery stalks
• A large bunch of fresh coriander leaves
• A small bunch of fresh rue leaves
• 2 tablespoons olive oil

• sea salt

1. Break the bulbs up into cloves, spread these out on a baking ray and cook under a hot grill for five minutes.
2. Cook cloves under a hot grill for five minutes, turning them over two or three times to avoid burning. Leave to cool for a couple of minutes, then squeeze out the garlic flesh from the skins.

4. Serve in a bowl as a spread for breads such as lagana or catillus ornatus.
