While I was thinking about the biftekia gemista or Greek feta stuffed burgersthey reminded me of another feta dish that I wanted to try, feta fries. I came across the idea of feta frieson Greek Food R & R and I had been wanting to try them ever since. The recipe is pretty simple ingredient wise but don't let that fool you as these fries are amazingly good! One thing that I found interesting about these fries is that they are cooked in olive oil which was a first for me. You are going to want to use a good Greek feta for maximum enjoyment. The trick to these fries is throwing them under the broiler after they are cooked with a sprinkling of the feta until the feta just starts to melt and then you are going to want to eat them while they are still piping hot. The salty, softened, just melting feta is magically good when paired with the fries that are nice and crispy on the outside and warm and creamy on the inside. A dash of oregano helps bring home the Greek flavours and a splash of lemon juice brightens everything up. These fries are definitely worth the effort of deep frying!
