Saganaki Fried Cheese is a delectable Greek dish made from hearty slices of cheese, typically Kasseri, that are dusted in flour and pan-fried to golden perfection. As the cheese crisps up, it forms a deliciously crunchy exterior while the inside melts into gooey bliss. Served flambéed with a splash of brandy, this irresistible appetizer is often accompanied by a squeeze of lemon. While it’s a rich indulgence, the protein-packed cheese offers a satisfying source of calcium. Just remember, moderation is key, as this dish is deep-fried and best enjoyed as a treat!
