In addition to making Shrimp Saganaki for the Project Food Blog challenge, I've also made the Cheese Saganaki, the Greek-style fried cheese. This is an easy appetizer that can be made in minutes and is always so very good.
Saganaki is traditionally made with Kefalotiri cheese. This is a hard cheese made of typically goat or sheep milk with mild, savory, and salty flavors.
To make saganaki:
Cut the Kefalotiri cheese into slices, about 1/2 inch thick. Brush with egg wash or just warm water, on all sides. Dip in flour, and then fry in a pan with a little oil until golden. Serve immediately, while the cheese is still melted.

This week, I am busy in the kitchen developing new gourmet recipes for the fabulous party I am planning in hopes to participate in the challenge # 3 of the Project Food Blog. I would love to share the new dishes with you this weekend, so please help me advance to the next round and vote for my Shrimp Saganaki here!!!
