Fried Goat Cheese with Arugula and Mint Recipe - TheRecipe.Website

Fried Goat Cheese with Mint and Arugula is a lovely summery dish that is full of flavour. I add nutmeg to the dredge for a little hit and it works wonders. Served as a side dish, main dish and a snack. This is a lovely vegetarian dish with he soft caramelised onion creating beautiful sweetness. All the while the balsamic vinegar brings out the flavours of the goat cheese, nutmeg and herbs .

This is a lovely dish that is ready in under 25 minutes and ideal for those “I need something different” days.
