This is a 3/4 lb piece of kefaloteri cheese - you can use any semi-firm cheese for this dish, which is known to the Greeks as Saganaki
Cut 1/2 inch thick slices, 1 or 2 per guest
Pass each slice under cold, running water, then lay the slices on a paper towel. This helps the flour adhere to the room temperature cheese
Put some flour in a pan or on a plate...
...coat each slice of cheese with flour...
...shake off the excess flour and lay the cheese in a hot iron skillet with hot olive oil - and fry 'em!
After a couple of minutes - no more than 3 - turn a piece to just the color. You want golden brown. The flour / water creates a crust and the cheeses melts between...now flip each piece...
...another 2-3 minutes and you have created 'saganaki' - a squeeze of lemon and you have a creamy, crusty, aromatic and delicious appetizer!
