Main Dishes

Káposztás Tészta is a simple Hungarian dish with two main ingredients: cabbage and pasta.

A traditional Greek Quince Jam or Jelly (Marmelada Kydoni),  using arbaroriza (fragrant geraniums) to flavour it.

Koukia, Fava beans (Vicia faba), in Greek koukia (plural of word kouki), pr. kou-KHIA, is an easy, vegan Greek dish paired with lemon, dill, fennel and parsley, which adds lots of flavour to this healthy dish.

Brown Lentils with Smoked Eggplant and Pasta is inspired from my Cypriot dish called Fakhes Moudjentra.   It is a light dish with a lot of flavour from the smoked eggplant as well as sweetness from the carrots and onion.  The pasta is cooked in the leftover fluid, which absorbs all the flavour and adds body to the dish, making it a healthy and filling dish.

Aladoti Eliopita (pr. Ah-LAH-doh-tee Eh-LIOH-pee-tah), is an olive bread made without any oil or any other fat whatsover. This yummy eliopita uses tahini as its source for fat, which makes a delicious and healthy bread for breakfast, brunch or as a snack during the strict Orthodox fasting period, when there are days that no oil whatsover is consumed.

Moschari Lemonata (pr. moss-HAH-ree Lae-moh-NAH-toh),  is a traditional Greek Veal recipe with lemon juice, which is a perfect Sunday meal. 

Creased Cheese Pie is a different Greek pie called Patsavouropita (pronounced. pah-tsah-vou-RHO-pee-ta), which is very easy to make and tastes amazing.   This Greek pie is made by creasing each phyllo sheet and dipping it in a batter made with soda water, eggs and feta.

Imam Bayildi is a stewed eggplant dish of Politiki Kouzina (the Greek community of Constantinople), brought to Greece by the Greek refugees, after the systematic massacre and deportation of the Greeks of Asia Minor, after 1922.

This Light and Creamy Evaporated Milk Chicken with Penne can be made in half an hour.  This is a wonderful chicken breast recipe that uses evaporated milk and Kefalotyri cheese in it to make it creamy.  

Greek “Spanakopita” (spinach pie), pronounced (spa-nah- KOH -pee-taa), is possibly the most popular Greek pie, made with spinach, aromatic herbs and feta cheese.
