Veg chilli was nice, fine for in the week but will need to make something really nice on the weekend.
I'm doing it this weekend, egg and seasoned flour for the coating and fry. The feta I use is very crumbly so will have to take care with it. I'll think of something to go with it to make it into a main I think.
Love feta. Never thought about frying it though! Goes great in a salad with black olives, chopped peppers, cherry toms, red onion etc. Dress with Virgin olive oil and oregano. Lovely with any sort of shish kebab, especially lamb
You don't need an egg Luv, just take your Feta cheese out of the fridge when you're ready to cube it up and coat in seasoned flour. Job done! I serve mine as the pic with salad & croutons with balsamic vinegar drizzled over the salad.
Egg is normally used to get the flour to stick but I agree and was thinking the same as what you said. Feta is a wet cheese and will have enough moisture to get the flour to stick.
I'm going to treat myself to some Crayfish from Lidl on the weekend, haven't bought it as much since the price went up. Used to be £1.59 which was amazing they are now £2.99
I'll have to remember that. There's near where I'm working, be ideal for my current 'diet'. I always go to Asda, I could piss on it from my office. More or less!
I live a 2 min walk from ASDA but still drive to Lidl for a lot of things and always for the weekly shop.
I used to use Lidl for quite a few things but regarding your crayfish, do you live near a river or fishing lakes?
They are everywhere here in lakes but you're not allowed to fish for them which is silly. I don't think the Lidl ones are local at all.
What I was getting at is if you live near a river or fishing lakes you can get the fishermen to catch them for you or apply to your local river authority to put a crayfish basket down. I used to have the river Kennet run by at the bottom of my garden and had three baskets which were pretty much full every day. what I never used I bartered with the local pub restaurants for beer. Ps. As long as you put the indigenous red crayfish back.
There's a lake nearby in the grounds of a castle and it's chocca full of them but they wont allow you to take them out, the Portugese and Polish immigrants are forever climbing over the walls and getting them. I think they are the American signal ones though that are considered a pest and the concern is that people will add them to other lakes and rivers.
Made a chilli last night.. was good. May do that fried feta also. Looks good. Got a block of it in the fridge that’s been there a while. May also try it with haloumi.
A pest indeed, they were introduced in the 60's to replaced our indigenous species but they were also carriers of that disease. They also eat fish eggs a plenty which has seen fish stocks dwindle. I'm sure any bailiff would be happy to supply you given a backhander proving he isn't selling them direct to buyers.
