Feta and Chillies Tingle

There are days when we haven’t had much of a chance to come up with anything earth shattering.My channel changing escapades led me to watch 'Nigel Slater's Simple Suppers'.  Nigel cooked a simple recipe of chillies and feta, which initially I wasn't that excited by.  However when he lifted a piece of bread and stuffed it with chillies and the melty feta to his mouth,I immediately said 'I want to eat that!'

Perfect for a Monday evening,I think this is one of those dishes which will definitely hit the spot.

Ingredients

3 large chillies
2 large spring onions or 1 small red onion
a little olive oil
Some thyme, leaves only
A block of feta cheese
soft bread, to serve


Method

Slice the chillies  and  cut them into thin slices. Thinly slice the spring onions.
Warm the olive oil in a frying pan then add the chillies and spring onions. Let them sizzle briefly,you want them to be soft but not browned.
Add a little thyme to the pan then lower in the block of feta. 
Let the cheese soften slightly then serve with the chillies and some soft fresh bread.


The feta offers a salty, lip-tingling hit.Its  great as a starter or nibbles at a dinner party where you could try serving them as canapés.
