For your Shopping Cart:

For an appetizer that looks just as good as it tastes, pan-fried feta can be served up alone or with Greek olives. Enjoy with a sweet, fruity wine that will compliment its tart, lemony essence. You are 5 ingredients away from delicious!

Ingredients:

1 (10-ounce) block of feta cheese 1 cup all-purpose flour 1 egg 1 cup Takashi Breadcrumbs 3/4 cup DeLallo Extra Virgin Olive Oil

Directions:

In a medium-sized saucepan on high, heat 2-3 inches of olive oil.

On a plate or shallow bowl, place flour. Crack and beat egg in separate bowl. In another dish, place breadcrumbs. Careful to coat each thoroughly: roll Feta cubes in flour, egg, then breadcrumbs. Set on wax paper until oil is ready.

Oil can be tested with a small drop of egg. Oil is ready when egg drop fries up quickly – approximately 365 degrees.

Fry cubes until golden brown, 2-3 minutes. Line baking sheet or large dish with paper towels and transfer finished Feta from oil with a slotted spoon.

Serve warm.
