Melenia Feta
Honeyed Feta Cheese
Ingredients
- 200g Feta Cheese (P.D.O.)
- 1 Egg (lightly beaten)
- A little bit of Flour
- 1 cup Sesame Seeds & “Mavrokouki” (Black Sesame Seeds) at a ratio of 3:1
- 40g Pine Honey
- A bit of Extra Virgin Olive Oil for frying
Instructions
Step by step
When we say that feta matches everything… we do mean it!
Prepare two slices of feta cheese, about 1-1.5cm thick, so it does not “break up”.
Spread the flour, egg & sesame mix in three different dishes. Soak the cheese slices & then dip them in turn, in the flour, egg & then sesame seeds.
Heat some olive oil in a small pan. Carefully place the slices in the hot pan. Heat a little on both sides until a thick crust is formed & the cheese softens on the inside without melting.
Place the slices on a plate & sprinkle with honey.
Serve immediately for a special “honeyed-cheese” delight!
Enjoy this delicious appetizer with some good tsipouro…
