Method

Four pitta breads go a long way with this thrifty party canapé recipe. Cut the pittas into triangles, then toast in the oven with olive oil. At this stage they are ready to be topped with houmous, feta, sesame seeds and chilli.

  1. Take 4 pitta breads and cut each one into 3 large triangles. Pull the layers apart so that you have about 24 pieces.
  2. Drizzle with a little olive oil and place on a large baking tray. Crisp for 8 minutes in a preheated Gas Mark 6, 200ºC, fan 180ºC oven and let cool.
  3. Spoon a dollop of houmous on each and arrange on a tray. Sprinkle with half a pack of crumbled feta, finely chopped chillies (about 1 deseeded and chopped), zest of 1 lemon and 2tbsp toasted sesame seeds. Just before serving, dust the tops with a sprinkling of smoked paprika.
