Can someone tell me a nice greek recipe?

Answer 2

Cheese is one of my favorite foods and these are wonderful Greek appetizers.

Fried Cheese (Saganaki tyri)

250 gr. any hard cheese, kefalotyri Parmesan, Gruyere or Greek Cypriot haloumi

50 grams butter

Cut the cheese into 1 cm thick slices. Heat the butter in a frying pan and put the slices in. Turn the heat down a little and let it cook for 1-2 minutes until it bubbles. It should not turn brown, but should look creamy and sticky. In Greece the cheese is usually cooked in small frying pans, so they can be taken straight to the table. Sprinkle a little lemon juice on top and some black pepper and offer it with fresh bread.

Spice cheese spread (Tirokafteri)

8 oz package cream cheese

1 lb feta, crumbled

1 cup lemon juice

1/4 tsp ground White pepper

1/2 cup olive oil

1 cup half&half

Soften cream cheese in large bowl with mixer. Add feta, lemon juice, and white pepper. Slowly add olive oil until all the oil is absorbed. Mix in half&half until the miture is smooth and soft. If the mixture is hard, add a little more half&half to soften. Add roasted peppers. Serve with bread.

Baked Cherry Tomatoes and Feta (Mezes me ntomatakia kai feta)

1 tbspn minced garlic

2/3 cup olive oil

2 lb cherry tomatoes

1 loaf focaccia bread (or French bread) heated

6 oz soft feta cheese

2/3 cup fresh basil cut chiffonade

Steep garlic in olive oil at least 1/2 hour. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Wash and stem tomatoes and cut them in half (put unwrapped bread into the oven). Put tomatoes in a shallow baking dish, pour olive oil and garlic over and toss lightly. Bake 10 minutes; sprinkle over chunks of cheese (cut into 1/2-inch pieces) and slivered basil. Stir gently. Serve with bread to mop up juices.
