Greek Fried Cheese (Saganaki) | Mantry Test Kitchen

Dip the cheese in water and dredge both sides in flour, making sure it is coated on all sides.

Preheat a skillet on medium-high heat until smoking.

Pour in olive oil (it should run like water when hot).

Lower in cheese, be careful not to crowd the pan.

Cook until cheese is golden brown about 1 1/2 - 2 minutes, and fry until the bottom is browned, about another 30 seconds or so.

Remove from pan (or you can just serve in the skillet), top with lemon juice and a drizzle of honey.
