Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 200 grams feta cheese, drained and crumbled ((about 7 ounces...whatever the standard size in the store is fine))
  • 1 egg, beaten
  • 1 - 2 tablespoons flour
  • 1/4 cup or more bread crumbs (optional)
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • vegetable oil (I used sunflower oil)

Instruction

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F/200°C and prepare a rimmed baking sheet with a generous amount of oil (completely cover the bottom of the sheet)
  • In a medium bowl mix the beaten egg, crumbled feta cheese and 1 tablespoon of flour together. Add more flour and/or bread crumbs as needed until the mix can be formed into balls that don't fall apart.
  • Use a cookie scoop to portion the mix.
  • Place the balls on the baking sheet and gently roll them around in the oil. Arrange them without touching and give each one a gentle pat to flatten it out slightly.
  • Bake for 5 - 7 minutes on each side or until a pleasant golden brown color.
  • Serve with slices of fresh lemon and pita bread.
