Provoleta

Method

Heat a heavy-based frying pan or griddle over a high heat until very hot. Arrange the provolone slices in a single layer in the pan, allowing them to form a golden crust on the bottom, approximately 1-2 minutes. Carefully flip the cheese and cook the other side for another 1-2 minutes until both sides are deeply browned and crispy at the edges. Transfer the provoleta to a warm plate and immediately drizzle generously with olive oil, then sprinkle with dried oregano, fresh chilli, salt and black pepper whilst still hot. Serve immediately with warm crusty bread to scoop up the melted cheese and oil.
