Ingredients

The following ingredients have 5 Servings
  • 200 g (7 oz) brined feta cheese
  • 1 cup flour
  • 2 eggs (beaten)

  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • salt & pepper to taste

Instruction

  • To fry the feta, heat the oil in a deep saucepan.
  • Cover the feta cheese first in the flour, then in the beaten egg and finally in the breadcrumbs. If you want a thicker, crunchier coating, repeat the egg and breadcrumb steps.
  • When the oil it hot, carefully place the feta cheese in the oil and allow to fry until golden brown and crispy all over.
  • Remove and allow to drain on kitchen paper.
  • To assemble the salad, place all the ingredients on a large platter.
  • Whisk together all the salad dressing ingredients.
  • Drizzle a little honey over the feta cheese and place on the salad, dress and serve.
