Ingredients

  • A package of feta cheese weighing 8 ounces
  • Two large eggs
  • 1/2 cup of all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup of sesame seeds
  • Approximately 1/3 cup of oil for frying, or more if required
  • 1/2 teaspoon of honey, adjust to your liking

Step 1

Begin by cutting the feta cheese into neat squares or rectangles, each about 1/2 inch thick.

Step 2

Next, crack the eggs into a bowl that comfortably accommodates the feta. Gently beat the eggs with a fork until well mixed.

Step 3

Prepare two plates for the coating process – one for flour and the other for sesame seeds.

Step 4

Dredge each feta piece in flour, ensuring it is fully coated. Dip it into the beaten eggs, making sure every side is covered. Finish by pressing the feta into the sesame seeds, ensuring a generous coating on all sides.

Step 5

In a frying pan, heat a sufficient amount of olive oil for shallow frying over medium-high heat. Carefully place the coated feta in the pan and fry until beautifully golden, which usually takes about 5 minutes. Flip the feta and fry the other side for an additional 5 minutes.

Step 6

Once fried to perfection, transfer the feta to paper towels to absorb any excess oil. Drizzle a touch of honey over the crispy feta and serve it while still warm.

Extra Tips & Suggestions

  1. 1. Keep your savory feta delight in an airtight container to maintain its freshness and prevent it from absorbing other food odors in your fridge.
  3. 2. For an extra crispy and delightful texture, store your sesame-coated goodness in a paper bag or a breathable container to avoid moisture buildup.
