Saganaki halloumi (Greek cheese from a pan)
Sagani is a pan with two ears in which haloumi is traditionally baked but also served. This is a typical Greek meza that is eaten with a lot of bread so that it is lightly dipped in a wonderful sauce. For girls from Split and Croatia, I bought haloumi from Lidl and I also saw him in Interspar.
Preparation steps
- When you open the cheese, try it, it can happen that the cheese is too salty, so if that happens, soak it in milk, before putting it in the milk, cut it an inch thick. Put olive oil in the pan (make it extra virgin because it is an important part of the recipe) Put the cheese on kitchen paper to absorb excess water or milk if you have soaked it. Put the cheese on heated oil and bake the cheese for a minute from each side until golden Take the cheese out on a plate or if you are going to serve it in a pan, pour lemon juice over it, steam it well with freshly ground pepper (you can use less if you don't like pepper) chives put sprinkle with chopped fresh oregano, basil or mint.Serve along with crispy pita bread and salad.
Serving
Serve with crispy pie bread and salad.
