I live next to a city that is mainly Greek restaurants and gets a lot of tourism for the Sponge Docks and just love having this appetizer!! The combination of the salty cheese, butter and lemon juice is so flavorful. Can serve it with pita bread or type of bread of your choice, or heck, just eat it plain as it is delicious. Ingredients:
2 lbs kefalotyri cheese (can use feta or kasseri cheese) |
1 cup butter |
2 tablespoons lemon juice (fresh) |
Directions:
1. Cut cheese into bite sized pieces. In a heavy skillet, fry cheese in hot butter quickly (a few seconds on each side) until golden. Arrange on a platter and sprinkle with lemon juice. Serve hot.
