Great recipe. It is more like the feta saganaki that you get here in Germany than what you get in the US. It is gooey and flavourful. I squeezed some lemon over mine. In this sort of recipe, the quality of the cheese is very important so pick a good quality sheep's feta cheese to get the best results!

I love to cook and am always trying to improve my culinary skills. My husband is a great cook and inspires me to learn more and try new recipes. I love trying new foods, but have a weakness for Polynesian dishes. (Yum!) I'm famous for making very addicting banana bread and pineapple pies...
