Method
Cheese Preparation
- 1
Cut the Cheese
Slice the Kefalotyri cheese into 1-inch thick pieces. Pat them dry with a paper towel to remove any excess moisture.
- 2
Coat the Cheese
Place the all-purpose flour in a shallow dish. Dredge each piece of cheese in the flour, ensuring all sides are coated. Shake off any excess flour.
Cooking
- 3
Heat the Oil
In a frying pan, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat until it shimmers. Ensure the oil is hot enough to fry the cheese but not so hot that it smokes.
- 4
Fry the Cheese
Carefully add the floured cheese pieces to the pan, making sure not to overcrowd them. Fry for about 2-3 minutes on each side until they are golden brown and crispy.
- 5
Drain Excess Oil
Once fried, use a slotted spatula to remove the cheese from the pan and place it on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb any excess oil.
Serving

Garnish and Serve
Arrange the fried cheese on a serving plate. Squeeze fresh lemon juice over the top and sprinkle with chopped parsley. Serve immediately with lemon wedges on the side.
