MY GREEK MENU #3 - Feta Cheese Flatbread

We made authentic Tiganopita me feta! (Feta Cheese Flatbread/Pancake)

Tiganopita is the name used for various quick Greek flatbreads that are fried on top of the stove or cooked in the oven.

The classic Greek dish is best served as an appetizer. The recipe has only 6 ingredients and bakes within 30 minutes. I highly recommend this to anyone who is looking to make an easy Greek dish full of mediterranean flavor!

I may not be the best chef in the kitchen (yet), but with a little practice I know I will make my family proud!

Cooking is one of those things that is part of life, whatever you make, however long it takes...it will taste delicious with meraki (doing something with soul, creativity, or love)!

Ingredients:
- 1 cup water
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 large eggs, lightly beaten
- 1 1/2 cups crumbled feta cheese
- freshly ground pepper

Steps:
1. In a medium bowl, beat the flour and eggs with a whisk
2. Gradually beat in the cup of water until mixed
3. Cover the bowl and let stand for 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours
4. Preheat the oven to 400°F (204°C)
5. Cover an 11"x 7" baking dish with olive oil
6. Stir 1 cup of feta cheese into the batter
7. Sprinkle freshly ground pepper into the batter
8. Pour the batter into the baking dish
9. Add the remaining 1/2 cup of feta cheese to the baking dish
10. Sprinkle freshly ground pepper into the dish
11. Bake for 30 minutes or until the top is golden brown.

This traditional Greek appetizer pairs perfectly with a greek salad!

I will be sharing my experience cooking traditional, classic Greek recipes every month!
