Everywhere among the appetizers Sicilian tables Sunday: is the fried cheese Sicilian, stuffed with anchovies and breaded like a cutlet. A triumph of flavor. Today's recipe is certainly not diet food, but its simplicity is really good. On the other hand, there are few SICILIAN RECIPES I might call read. Among other things, precisely in the endless succession of appetizers traditionally served in Sicilian restaurants, conceals the most insidious and calorie dishes. CAULIFLOWER BALLS, fried cheese, CRUSHED OLIVE, CAPONATA Eggplant, pancakes of various types, omelettes, meats and cheeses. An ode to cholesterol, but sometimes you can do, How about? Among other things, if you want to at least try the eggplant caponata, Also found in the VIDEO RECIPE on my YouTube channel.
Also because in Sicilian restaurants' true’ most of the appetizers is fried and frying makes the lion's share. Fried ricotta, Fried fried and pecorino primo sale are most frequent and today's recipe is the one of the first fried salt. Between the two slices (thin, at least this) hiding a pinch of oregano and an anchovy that with the heat melts, then everything comes breaded and fried. The fried cheese Sicilian is a really delicious tidbit, delicious appetizer with the usual glass of Prosecco or Franciacorta Docg. If you find the first salt you're riding, but you can also prepare it with Tuma or with fresh pecorino cheese and obviously not too salty. In Rome, you may as well use the junket. Have a good day!
