Feta Saganaki Is Not A Japanese Recipe

It sounds Japanese but is Greek and I am homesick (again) so I cooked it today. With sesame seeds and honey. For a moment I was magically transferred to my favorite place in Athens, eating with Anna. Here is the way to make it :

• 250g feta
• 1 small egg
• 1/2 teaspoons ground pepper
• 1/2 teaspoons ground paprika
• olive oil

• flour (used gluten -free all purpose and it was great)
• sesame seeds

• 1 teaspoon oregano

• 3 tablespoons honey

Cut the feta into long chunks, so they look like little fingers and place in the freezer for 15 minutes. It is very important to do that so they wont break while cooking.

Mix the egg, pepper, paprika and oregano in a bowl and beat well. Roll each piece of feta in the egg mixture, then roll in the flour. Once you have done all of them, roll each piece in the egg for a second time, then roll in the sesame seeds.

Heat the olive oil in a frying pan, and cook the feta on each side until golden. Once they are ready remove and drizzle with a little honey and serve immediately.

Generally speaking feta saganaki is harmful for your heart to have every day and for your figure too, but if you serve it with something healthy like asparagus you can reduce the levels of guilt.
