SAGANAKI (FRIED CHEESE) GREEK STYLE
This is wonderful to serve as an appetizer, serve lots of lemon wedges and I like crisp Pita Bread Pieces. If you cannot get the Greek cheese you may in a pinch use Italian Provolone - I had to use this because I didn't plan far enough ahead to get the good Greek Cheese. Evelyn/Athens posted a link to this recipe (off Zaar) and when I searced Recipezaar I could not find one like this. Thanks Evelyn. The recipe is simple and very good.

GREEK SCRAMBLED EGGS
For a fresh and bright variation on your morning eggs, try strapatsatha, a simple Greek dish of scrambled eggs with tomatoes. It's as simple as can be: The best, freshest tomatoes you can find are grated on a box grater and reduced a bit, then scrambled with eggs, a little olive oil and garlic. A handful of tangy feta crumbles finishes it off.

Steps:
- Lop off a dime-size piece of the base of the tomato using a sharp knife. Grate the tomato from the base along the coarse side of an upright hand grater.
- In a 10-inch frying pan over medium heat, warm the olive oil and add the garlic. Cook for a minute or so, careful not to burn. Add the tomatoes. Cook them until all their water has cooked off and all that's left is thick pulp, about 10 minutes.
- Pour in the eggs and herbs. Season with salt and pepper. Stir all together with a wooden spoon. Remove when the eggs are cooked to desired doneness, anywhere between 5 and 8 minutes.

PARMESAN-OREGANO DEVILED EGGS
I've always marveled at how deviled egg recipes can be fiddled with and ingredients switched in and out, but they always still taste so good! I made this version last night for my fiance, and he loved the blend of sweetness and spiciness! These have oregano, Parmesan-Romano cheese, Dijon mustard, and a dash of hot sauce. I garnished them with a shredded Cheddar cheese blend and some paprika.

- To make this super easy Greek fries recipe, start by preparing the potatoes. Wash and peel the potatoes and cut into strips. At first slice the potatoes lengthwise into 1/2 cm (1/4 inch) slices and then cut each slice into strips. Place the potatoes in a large bowl with plenty of water to cover them.
- If you choose to bake your Greek fries, then layer a large baking tray with parchment paper and pour in 2-3 tbsps of olive oil. Place the tray in the oven and preheat at 200C.
- As soon as your oven is well preheated, drain and dry the potatoes and remove the baking tray from the oven. Place the potatoes on the baking sheet and season with salt and dried oregano.

- Place the oil in a medium high-sided saucepan and place over medium heat. Using a probe thermometer, bring the oil to 140c. If you dont have a thermometer, drop a chip into the fat after around 3-5 minutes of heating. If it bubbles and starts to fry right away, your oil is ready.
- Using a slotted spoon or a “spider”, lower a handful of chips into the hot oil. Fry for around 8 minutes until soft but not brown. Remove the chips from the pan and place in a bowl lined with kitchen towel to absorb some of the excess oil. Allow to cool for 5-10 minutes.
- Raise the heat under the oil to 180c and return your blanched chips to the pan. Fry until golden brown and crispy. Remove from the oil and return to a bowl lined with kitchen towel. Sprinkle with salt and oregano mixture and serve.

- Prepare the potatoes: Peel the potatoes and then cut them in desired size. Bring a large pan of water to the boil, then cook the potatoes for 3 minutes. Drain, shake out onto a kitchen paper-lined tray and leave to cool.
- How to fry the potatoes: Heat the oil in a large non-stick frying pan until the olive oil begins to sizzle. If your pan isn’t large enough, fry the potatoes in batches rather than crowding them. Add the potatoes in a single layer. Be careful not too tightly pack them in the pan. Turn the heat to medium-high, so that the potatoes sizzle, but don’t stir until their bottom starts to brown.
- Turn them all 2 or 3 times until nicely browned all over for about 7 mins. Then lift them out and drain them on a plate coated with kitchen paper.

- Peel and cut your potatoes in thin strips. Try to make them equally thick so they cook at the same time.
- Once the oil has heated up, dip in the chopped potatoes. You can test if the oil is ready with a bamboo skewer/chopstick, bubbles will gather around it.
- Dip the chopped potatoes low in the pot with a frying spoon (don’t throw them in, hot oil is extremely dangerous). Normally it takes 7-8 minutes to get golden coloured.

GREEK FRIED OLIVES - SCRUMMY LANE

- Crumble the feta cheese into a food processor, then pulse it a few times until it resembles fine crumbs. Then add the ricotta, oregano and lemon juice and process until it’s smooth and creamy. Add a drizzle of olive oil to help it loosen up if you think it needs it.
- Blot your olives on kitchen paper if they’ve been stored in brine, then spoon the filling into a piping bag. Cut off the very end (to about the size of the hole in the olive), then pipe little bits of the feta mixture into each olive.
- When all the olives are filled, begin heating your oil on a medium heat. While it heats up, put your flour, egg and breadcrumbs on three separate dishes. Roll the olives first in the flour, then dip them in the egg using a slotted spoon, then roll them in the breadcrumbs.
- When the oil is hot enough (test with a cube of bread – it should brown within a minute or so if the oil is hot enough), fry the olives in batches for about 30 seconds or so or until they are a lovely golden brown. Fish them out with the slotted spoon and drain on kitchen paper for a couple of minutes before serving with cocktail sticks for popping them into your mouth!
