Recipe: Baked Cheese with Vegetables (Bouyourdi)

It's called Bouyourdi, it originates from Greece and is a hot appetizer. Although the Greeks serve it as an appetizer, when I was done eating it, I was full, because it's served with bread - lots of bread soaked in melted cheese 🤤

Ingredients

1 large ripe tomato
1/3 bell pepper
50 g yellow cheese (Moeciu, Gouda, Gruyere, Kasseri)
100 g feta cheese
oregano
chili flakes
1 tablespoon olive oil

  1. Scald the tomato for 1 minute in hot water, peel it and cut it into cubes. Cut the bell pepper into thin slices. Slice the cheeses.
  2. In a small, heat-resistant bowl, place half of the tomato cubes. Sprinkle half of the bell pepper slices over them. Sprinkle with a pinch of oregano. Place half of the cheese on top. Put the remaining tomato over it. Cover with the rest of the cheese, then the remaining bell pepper.
  3. Sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon oregano and chili flakes to your heart's content. 😊 Drizzle with oil.
