Feta cheese with honey and ouzo in yufka dough

Ingredients for 4 servings:

• 2 packs of feta cheese, 200 g each
• 2 yufka dough sheets, rectangular
• some olive oil
• 1 tbsp sesame seeds
• 4 tsp honey, liquid
• 4 tsp ouzo

Instructions

Working time approx. 20 minutes; Cooking/baking time approx. 10 minutes; Total time approx. 30 minutes

Toast the sesame seeds in a dry pan until golden brown and transfer to a plate to cool. Halve each piece of feta cheese and the yufka leaves. Wrap each piece of cheese in a yufka leaf, folding in any excess dough to form a parcel. Heat the olive oil in a non-stick pan. Fry the feta parcels over moderate heat, seam-down first, then until golden brown on all sides. The oil should sizzle gently, but the dough should not burn. Place the baked feta parcels on plates, sprinkle with the sesame seeds, and serve immediately. Serve with runny honey and ouzo, if desired, to drizzle over the feta parcels. This goes well with a Greek farmer’s salad, but the feta parcels are also suitable as part of a Greek mezé platter.
