Be the first to This quick and easy feta and ricotta cheese fondue has a Greek flair. You may substitute fontina cheese for the feta and/or cottage cheese for the ricotta.
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 15 minutes
Ingredients:
- 3 Tablespoons butter or margarine
- 4 ounces feta cheese, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
- 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 lemon, juice only
- 1 Tablespoon parsley, minced (optional)
- 1 cup ricotta cheese
Preparation:
Melt the butter in a heavy 8-inch skillet or a 1 quart saucepan over low-heat. Add the feta and ricotta cheese, and pepper. Cook, stirring constantly, and mashing the cheeses slightly, until they soften and begin to bubble - about 5 minutes.
Stir in lemon juice, and garnish with the parsley if desired. Serve at once; as the fondue cools, it loses flavor.
Variations: Substitute fontina cheese for the feta cheese or you can substitute cottage cheese for the ricotta. You can make both of these substitutions.
Yield: 4 servings
