FRIED FETA GREEK SALAD PITAS



Fried Feta Greek Salad Pitas image

These are inspired by fried mozzarella sticks, briny Greek salad and falafel pitas. The only thing better than fried cheese on a salad...is stuffing that salad in a fluffy pita. The result is a party of textures, flavors and colors in one delicious handheld bite.

Provided by Molly Yeh

Categories     main-dish

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 24

1/2 cup pitted kalamata olives, sliced
4 Persian cucumbers, sliced into coins
1 small red bell pepper, julienned
1 small red onion, julienned
2 tablespoons lemon juice (from 1/2 lemon) plus lemon wedges, for serving
1 tablespoon olive oil, plus more for frying
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup (68 grams) all-purpose flour
1 large egg, beaten
1 cup (130 grams) panko breadcrumbs
One 8-ounce block feta cheese, cut into thirds, then each third cut crosswise into 6 equal pieces (18 pieces)
Fluffy pita, store-bought or homemade, recipe follows, for serving
Store-bought hummus, for serving
Arugula, for serving
Greek yogurt, for serving
Torn fresh mint leaves, for serving
Hot sauce, for serving, if desired
1 1/2 cups (360 grams) warm water
4 1/2 teaspoons granulated sugar
2 1/4 teaspoons instant yeast
3 tablespoons (45 grams) olive oil
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
3 3/4 cups (450 grams) bread flour, plus more for dusting
Neutral oil or cooking spray, for the bowl

Steps:

  • Combine the olives, cucumbers, red pepper and onion in a mixing bowl. Add the lemon juice, olive oil, a big pinch of salt and some black pepper and toss to combine. Allow to marinate in the refrigerator while you make the feta.
  • For the feta, prepare a dredging station. In a rimmed dish, add the flour. In a separate rimmed dish, whisk the egg with a splash of water. In a third separate dish, whisk together the breadcrumbs, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few turns of black pepper. Coat each chunk of feta in the flour and tap off the excess. Dunk in the beaten egg and then coat in the breadcrumbs, tapping off the excess.
  • Heat a 1/4-inch layer of olive oil in a 10-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat. (Test to see if it is hot enough by sprinkling a bit of breadcrumb in the oil. If it sizzles right away, it's ready.) Carefully place the breaded feta cubes in the oil and fry in batches for 90 seconds to 2 minutes on the first side, undisturbed. Flip and fry on the other side for another minute or so, or until golden brown. Remove to a cooling rack set over a baking sheet and allow excess oil to drain. Repeat until all pieces are fried.
  • To serve, slice open each pita and create a pocket. Schmear a big plop of hummus inside each one, followed by some arugula. Top with a pile of the Greek salad, a few chunks of the warm, fried feta, a dollop of yogurt and a few pieces of mint. Serve with lemon wedges and hot sauce, if desired.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a dough hook, mix together the water, sugar and yeast just to dissolve. Add the oil and salt and then gradually add the flour. Increase the speed to medium-high and mix for 7 to 10 minutes, adding just enough additional flour so that the dough no longer sticks to the bowl. Do not add too much flour. The dough should be smooth and slightly sticky. Lightly coat a clean large bowl with oil or cooking spray, then place the dough in the bowl and turn it once or twice to coat it in oil. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let it rise at room temperature for 2 hours, or until it has doubled in size.
  • Turn the dough onto a clean work surface and divide it into 8 equal pieces. Mold each piece into a ball by stretching the top and tucking the edges under. Place the balls 1 inch apart on a piece of parchment paper, cover them with plastic wrap and let them rise for 30 minutes.
  • Set an oven rack in the middle position. Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment.
  • With a rolling pin, roll out the balls of dough into 6-inch circles. Place them on the baking sheets and bake for about 5 minutes, or until they're puffy and just starting to brown.

Provided by Engrossed

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 20m

Yield 32 pieces, 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

3 (6 inch) pita bread rounds, quartered (fresh or slightly stale, preferably whole wheat)
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon fresh flat-leaf parsley, finely chopped
1 tablespoon fresh chives, finely chopped
2 large fresh garlic cloves, minced
coarse salt, to taste

Steps:

  • Cooks Tip: For the best results, use a baking sheet that is not too dark for this recipe; otherwise, watch the pita bread carefully as it burns easily.
  • Preheat oven to 500°F.
  • Separate each pita quarter into 2 pieces.
  • Arrange in a single layer, rough side up, on an ungreased baking sheet.
  • Brush evenly with the oil.
  • In a small bowl, combine the parsley, chives, and garlic.
  • Using your fingers, distribute the herb mixture evenly over the pita quarters.
  • Sprinkle evenly with coarse salt.
  • Bake on the top rack of the oven for 3 to 5 minutes, or until the pita quarters are nicely toasted.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients for the best flavor. Fresh herbs, ripe tomatoes, and creamy feta cheese will make a big difference.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different toppings. You could try grilled vegetables, roasted chickpeas, or even a fried egg.
  • If you're short on time, you can use pre-made pita bread. Just be sure to toast it before assembling the toast.
  • These toasts are best served immediately after they're made. However, you can make the toppings ahead of time and store them in the refrigerator for later use.

Conclusion:

Herbed pita toast with feta cheese is a delicious and versatile snack or appetizer. It's easy to make and can be customized to your liking. So next time you're looking for something quick and easy to eat, give this recipe a try.
