Saganaki with Meli Honey and a touch of Rosemary
Ingredients:
200g saganaki cheese (Kefalograviera or any similar cheese that can be grilled or pan-fried)
1 tbsp olive oil
1-2 sprigs of fresh rosemary
2 tbsp Meli Honey
Freshly ground black pepper (to taste)
Lemon wedges (for serving)
Instructions:
Prepare the Saganaki Cheese:
Cut the saganaki cheese into thick slices, about 1-1.5 cm each. Pat them dry with a paper towel to remove any excess moisture.
Cook the Saganaki:
Heat a non-stick skillet or a frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil to the pan. Once hot, add the saganaki cheese slices. Cook for about 2-3 minutes per side or until golden brown and crispy on the outside and soft on the inside.
During the last minute of cooking, add the rosemary sprigs to the pan to infuse the oil with their aromatic flavour.
Make the Meli Honey Drizzle:
While the cheese is cooking, warm the Meli Honey in a small saucepan over low heat for 1-2 minutes to make it easier to drizzle.
Serve:
Once the saganaki is golden and crispy, remove it from the pan and place it on a serving plate. Drizzle the warm Meli Honey over the cheese.
Sprinkle with freshly ground black pepper and garnish with the rosemary sprigs.
Serve with lemon wedges on the side for a zesty finish.
