Saganaki Cheese With Honey And Oregano Recipe

Recipe By Slurrp

Saganaki Cheese with Honey and Oregano is a traditional Greek appetizer made with fried cheese, drizzled with honey and sprinkled with oregano. The cheese used is typically a firm and salty variety, such as kefalotyri or graviera. The cheese is lightly coated in flour and pan-fried until golden and crispy on the outside, while still gooey and melty on the inside. It is then served hot, drizzled with honey and sprinkled with dried oregano. The combination of salty cheese, sweet honey, and aromatic oregano creates a delicious and irresistible flavor.
