Cheese Saganaki is a wonderful starter served up in most Greek restaurants and a Cretan favourite of mine. Shallow or deep fried this recipe is a great appetiser. Use this recipe to make your own cheese Saganaki.
Cut cheese lengthways into 6 slices, then cut each slice in half diagonally to make to make 12 triangles.
Dip cheese into a bowls of iced water, then drain and toss in seasoned flour to coat, shaking off excess. Heat oil in a frying pan, then cook cheese. in batches, over medium heat for 1 minute on each side or until golden. Squeeze juice of half a lemon over, scatter with parsley, then serve with crusty bread and remaining lemon quarters on the side
4 Tbs (60 ml) butter
1 egg, well beaten
1 tsp (5 ml) flour
1/2 lb (250 g) kasseri cheese*, sliced 1/2 inch (1 cm) thick
Juice of 1/2 lemon
*This cheese can be replaced with Gouda or White Cheddar.
