Labneh is served as a cold starter in restaurants around Turkey and the Middle East – here, I top it with a nutty and aromatic brown butter that's been infused with classic Turkish spice, pul biber. It might sound fancy, but this recipe is about as effortless as it gets!
Preparation and equipment: You will need a cheesecloth, muslin or alternative fabric for straining (see Recipe Tip).
