Saganaki is a Greek fried or broiled cheese favorite. My husband loves it, so I made it tonight for him (fried version).
Ingredients (for 2)
* Kasseri or Kefalograviera cheese
* 1 egg
* 1/2 cup white flour
* Olive oil
* 1/5 cup of brandy
Execution
1. Cut the cheese horizontally, to create two triangle halves. It’s a hard cheese, so be careful while cutting it.
3. Beat the egg with a whisk, and then dip the cheese halves on it, on both sides.
4. Coat the cheese well with the flour.
5. In a frying pan heat some olive oil in medium/high. Fry the cheese halves until they get a golden brown color, on both sides. [Optional: you can choose to broil it instead]
6. Moments before removing the cheese from the fire, pour the brandy. Turn one more time and when the alcohol is evaporated, serve hot.
