method
1. Preheat oven to 180°C.
2. Lightly butter/oil a 400g/1lb non-stick loaf tin. If your tin is not non-stick, line with baking parchment.
3. Heat a saucepan over a medium heat. Add the butter and cook the onion until soft and translucent. Add the cumin and set aside to cool.
4. In a suitable mixing bowl, sift together all the remaining dry ingredients. Fold through the cooked onion, grated carrot, dill and feta. In a separate bowl whisk together the eggs and the milk. Add to the dry mix and combine to form a soft dough, taking care not to overwork.
5. Pour into the prepared loaf tin and bake in the oven for approx. 40 minutes or until a skewer comes out clean. Remove and allow to cool on a wire cooling rack.
Serving suggestion: top with a little light cream cheese
