Method

Restated from the original video

1. 1

   Cut the suluguni into slices about 1 cm (1/2 in) thick and pat them dry with paper towels.

2. 2

   Spread the flour on a plate and turn each slice in it until coated on all sides. Shake off the excess.

3. 3

   Melt the butter in a heavy frying pan or a clay ketsi over medium heat until it foams.

4. 4

   Lay the slices in the pan in one layer without crowding.

5. 5

   Fry until the underside is golden and crisp, 1-2 min.

6. 6

   Turn carefully with a thin spatula and fry the second side until golden and the cheese softens and starts to spread at the edges, 1-2 min more.

7. 7

   Slide the cheese onto a warm plate, scatter over the coriander and serve at once with the tkemali, while it is still stretchy.
