How to make Greek salad with fried feta cheese
Can I make this ahead?
The feta cheese can be breaded up to an hour in advance. It is best served warm with the salad so I would recommend only frying 10-20 minutes before serving. The dressing can be made up to a week in advance and kept in a jar in the fridge. The assembled, undressed salad can be made an hour in advance, simply add the cheese and dressing before serving.
