FAQs

Can I make the whipped feta in advance?

Yes, prepare up to 3–4 days ahead and refrigerate. Stir before using.

What’s the best naan for this recipe?

Use plain or garlic naan. Homemade or store-bought both work well when warmed.

Is this dish suitable for picnics?

Can I add meat to these wraps?

Mint, parsley, and cilantro are all excellent. Basil or dill can be added for variety.

Can I use flavored feta?

Yes, but reduce added salt or seasonings accordingly to avoid overpowering the wrap.

How do I make cucumber ribbons?

Use a vegetable peeler to slice the cucumber lengthwise into thin ribbons.

Can I toast the naan?
