AthenaNY (New York) says:
Saganaki is never made with mozzarella, it's always made with Greek cheese. Some make it with feta, some with kefalograviera cheese.

Wrong, buy Kayseri cheese, and kefaiorti then, cut in slices, broil at 450°F for 5-10 with butter then take out add very brandy on top set on fire then blow out or let burn off you may sprinkle very little paprika, squeeze lemon and done! They also make a saganki cheese, it's made from sheep milk I believe
