Step 1.
Start by lining a sieve over a bowl with a J-Cloth. Tip in the yoghurt and leave to strain for 1-2 hours, or overnight, depending on the thickness of your yoghurt and the texture of labneh you’re after.
Step 2.
To make the spiced butter, set a small saucepan over a medium heat. Add the butter and cook until nut brown. Finely grate in the garlic and sizzle for 30 secs. Tip in the aleppo pepper and season with salt, lemon zest and juice and finely chopped sage.
Step 3.
Squash the green olives with the heel of your hand and chuck them into the butter. Thinly slice the red onion.
Step 4.
To serve, swoosh the labneh over a large serving platter. Top with the warm spiced olive butter and scatter over the herbs and sliced red onion. Serve with crudites (on ice if you’re feeling fancy) and warm grilled bread.
