Baked feta parcels

When meat is baked in parcels, it's referred to as kleftiko. In this recipe, I've used foil and placed the feta in the oven, but you could also place the parcels on a rack in a covered barbecue. Whatever way you do it, this dish makes a delicious vegetarian snack or side dish.

Cook's Notes

Oven temperatures are for conventional; if using fan-forced (convection), reduce the temperature by 20˚C. | We use Australian tablespoons and cups: 1 teaspoon equals 5 ml; 1 tablespoon equals 20 ml; 1 cup equals 250 ml. | All herbs are fresh (unless specified) and cups are lightly packed. | All vegetables are medium size and peeled, unless specified. | All eggs are 55-60 g, unless specified.
