Most saganaki seems to be fried with ouzo. Thought this might be a good alternative for those who don't want to fry or don't have ouzo on hand. Got this recipe from Food Festival USA cookbook. Haven't tried it yet, but it sounds good.
Ingredients:
1 lb kasseri cheese, cut in wedges
2 tablespoons melted butter
2 tablespoons brandy
1/2 lemon, juice of
Directions:
1. Place cheese on a buttered broiler pan. Pour on melted butter. Broil 4 - 6 inches from heat until cheese is bubbly and golden.
2. Warm brandy in microwave or small sauce pan.
3. Place cheese in ovenproof dish to flame before serving.
4. Pour warmed brandy over hot cheese and ignite immediately.
5. Squeeze lemon over cheese as flame begins to die.
