Method

Put the cottage cheese into a food processor with the garlic, onion salt, dried dill, dried parsley and ground black pepper.
Pour in the juice of 1 lemon and blitz for 30 secs-1 min, scraping down the sides of the food processor with a spatula halfway through, until light and fluffy.
Decant into a bowl and stir in most of the fresh herbs and some extra lemon juice, to taste. Serve with extra fresh herbs and crudités, if you like.
