Warm ½ tbsp oil in a deep frying pan. Add the onion. Season with salt and pepper. Stir and fry over a medium heat for 5 mins till soft. If it looks like it’s sticking, add a splash of water. Stir in the garlic and rosemary. Cook and stir for 1 min.

Feta & Feta
Your leftover feta will keep, wrapped, in the fridge for a couple of days. Try mashing it with yogurt and a couple of crushed garlic cloves. Spoon into a bowl, top with some toasted cumin seeds and a drizzle of olive oil. It's delicious as a dip or served on the side of grilled vegetable kebabs.
