About the dish

Tiganopsomo is a Greek version of fried bread. It is usually prepared with leavened dough consisting of wheat flour, olive oil, and salt that is rolled into a circle while the center is filled with crumbled feta and herbs such as oregano, rosemary, parsley, mint, or sage. Large disks are then fried in olive oil until golden and crispy. This bread is traditionally served for breakfast, and it is usually sprinkled with sesame seeds or drizzled with honey or balsamic vinegar. Some varieties may come without a filling, and feta can be replaced with mizithra cheese. Translated from Greek, tiganopsomo means fried bread .
