Greek Feta Saganaki

    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!
