Recipes with kefalotiri cheese
4 recipes
Spanakopita 2
I make triangles and leave out the mizithra or cottage cheese (too wet for these). Great appetizers if you make them small.
Pastitso 2
Pastitsio with layered macaroni, seasoned ground beef in tomato-wine sauce, and creamy bechamel topped with kefalotiri cheese. A traditional Greek baked pasta casserole.
Saganaki (Fried Cheese)
Saganaki, the classic Greek fried cheese appetizer made with kefalotiri or kasseri, pan-fried in butter until golden and finished with fresh lemon juice.
Yiouvetsi
Greek lamb baked with orzo pasta in tomato sauce with cinnamon and cloves. The orzo absorbs all those rich, spiced pan juices.
