Ravasaki
take a piece of puff pastry, place the feta cheese at the end and fold the top and the sides over the cheese, apply some egg-wash so the puff pastry sticks together
place them in the freezer for 30 minutes
use the deep frier to fry the puff pastry but first submerge half of the pastry and let them start to fry before you let go so not to stick to the bottom. Fry them until they turn golden
once ready let them rest for 5 minutes
