Feta Crouton
A simple preparation of feta cheese to use as a topping on salads
Ingredients
- 4 oz Feta Cheese should be solid, not crumbly
- 1/4 cup Panko Bread
- 1/4 cup All-Purpose Flour
- 1 egg beaten
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp Fresh thyme
- 2 cups Vegetable for frying
Instructions
- Mix the all-purpose flour with salt and thyme on a plate. Set out the panko crumbs on a plate as well.
- Cut up the feta cheese into cubes.
- Set up a breading station. Dip the feta cheese cubes in flour, then in egg and finally panko crumbs. Bread all the cubes of feta cheese before proceeding to fry.
- In a pan, heat up the oil on medium heat. The oil is ready when panko crumbs flicked into the oil sizzle.
- Fry the breaded feta cheese without crowding the pan. The feta croutons are ready when breading is golden brown. Take out of the oil and set on kitchen paper towels to absorb excess oil.
- Serve immediately on a salad. Or eat while standing at the stove.
