Grilled vegetables are often hosted on Greek tables as an addition to larger dishes or as an independent starter. In one of the taverns last year, we enjoyed a grilled pepper stuffed with feta cheese. Delicious and very fast to prepare. It tastes brilliantly combined with ordinary fried potatoes sprinkled with herbs.
The Greeks use long sweet peppers for this purpose, which can also be bought in Poland without too much of a problem. However, these are not chili peppers, so please do not go wrong in the store :) Of course, here too, the original Greek feta must be used, there is no speech to use Polish or German cheeses. Only she guarantees a good taste. The addition is dried herbs for the feta - we generally use ready-made residents bought in Crete or mountain oregano.
1. The peppers should be cut along and clean from the seed nests. Feta cheese can be wiped off on a grater with a coarse mesh or cut into small pieces. The method is basically less important, the feta you eat is easier to stuff in peppers.
2. Peppers should be placed on a flat baking sheet greased with olive oil.
3. Feta cheese should be applied inside each one, then it should be poured with olive oil and sprinkled with slightly dried herbs.
4. Put the plate with peppers in the oven preheated to about 180-190 degrees with the toaster switched on and keep until the peppers reach the state of light grilling. Feta must dissolve a bit and blush from the top.
The dish is served hot as an addition to baked potatoes or as typical Greek meze.
Tirokafteri is a popular addition to bread or pita, which can also be obtained in a tavern as meze. It can be described as a Greek paste made of feta cheese and paprika.
Greek cheese balls fried in deep oil, probably some of you know from vacation journeys. The Greeks serve them with lemon, which emphasizes the taste of melted cheeses. The rich composition of the taste is thanks to the three cheeses from which they are made. Slightly spicy salty feta, sweet and soft Gouda and mature cheddar complement each other, but their flavor can be enriched by adding herbs, such as mint. This tasty snack is unfortunately a good calorie bomb, so if someone counts calories, Tirokroketes will not be a good choice.
