Ingredients :
- 4 ounces Kasseri cheese
- 1 tablespoon water
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 ounce brandy
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice from 1 lemon, for garnish
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley minced, for garnish
Directions :
- Using a pastry brush, brush each side of the Kasseri cheese with water. To a shallow dish, add flour. Coat each side of the cheese with flour.
- In a small cast iron skillet over medium-high heat, heat pan until it just begins to smoke, about 6 to 8 minutes. Add olive oil and carefully place the floured cheese in the hot oil. Cook until cheese begins to ooze and a golden-brown crust forms, about 2 minutes. Quickly flip the cheese over with a spatula. Fry until bottom is golden brown, about 30 seconds more.
- Remove skillet from heat. Drizzle brandy over the cheese. Carefully light the brandy using a fireplace lighter. Let the flames subside, drizzle lemon juice over cheese, and garnish with parsley.
