Ingredients
-
1500g Full fat yogurt
-
1 Tsp. Salt
-
2 Tbsp. Harissa Infused Olive Oil
-
1 Tbsp. Tuscan Herb Infused Olive Oil
-
Fresh thyme
-
2 Tbsp. Minced shallots
-
3 Kalamata olives
-
2 Tbsp. Capers
Directions
Pour the yogurt into a large bowl. Stir in salt.
Place a strainer in another bowl and line it with cheesecloth. The strainer should sit above the bowl so there is room for the liquid to drain into the bowl below.
Pour the yogurt mixture into the cheesecloth. Fold the cloth over the cheese and place in the fridge to drain for 24 to 48 hours. Discard liquid afterwards.
To serve, spread labneh in a bowl and top with Harissa Infused Olive Oil, Tuscan Herb Infused Olive Oil, fresh thyme, olives, shallots and capers. Serve with pita and fresh veggies for dipping. Enjoy!
