Mash the feta cheese in a bowl with a fork. Add the yogurt and process into a cream. Wash the parsley, shake it dry, and pluck it from the stems. Set aside a few leaves for garnishing. Chop the remaining parsley and add it to the cream. Add the mint, pul biber, and crushed garlic. Mix well again. Serve and garnish. Delicious with flatbread, but also as a vegetable dip. Caution: It’s very spicy!
