Step-by-Step Instructions

Preheat your oven to 180°C (160°C fan/gas mark 4).

Place the block of feta cheese in the center of a medium-sized baking dish, approximately 25cm x 20cm.

Scatter the cherry tomatoes and the finely sliced red onion around the cheese.

In a small jug or bowl, whisk together the extra virgin olive oil, crushed garlic, chopped herbs, and honey. Season with a pinch of salt and black pepper.

Drizzle the herb and honey mixture evenly over the tomatoes and the feta block.

Bake for 35 to 40 minutes until the tomatoes have softened and burst, and the feta is creamy and lightly golden.
