Minted Labna with Crudities

Minted Labna with Crudities

Serves 4

Points per serving 1

Core recipe

4 x 150g pots 0% total greek yogurt
½ tsp salt
1 tsp freshly chopped mint
a little finely grated lemon zest
raw vegetables cut into short lengths, e.g. cucumber, carrot, celery, peppers etc

Mix the yogurt and salt and pour into a sieve lined with muslin set over a bowl.  If you wish, gather up the corners of the cloth and suspend over the bowl so that more whey drains from the curd and the cheese is firmer.  Drain the cheese overnight until all the whey has drained out.

Unwrap the curd and mix in the mint and lemon zest.

Spoon into a dish and place in the centre of a serving platter surrounded by the veg.


Great flavoured with other herbs, garlic or even spices.  Nice spread on crispbreads as well.
