Main Dishes

Rice Pilaf (Rizi Pilafi), is one of the easiest side dishes, made with long grain white rice and stock.  It takes about 10 – 20 minutes to cook and it a great side dish to any meat dish with a red or white sauce.

Avgolemono, from the words avgo = egg and lemoni = lemon, is a Greek sauce made with eggs, lemons and stock from the food we are cooking. It takes a little practice to learn How to make Avgolemono sauce, but it’s not diffficult at all if you follow my instructions.

In Greece, okra are usually cooked “laderes” which is today’s vegan dish cooked with olive oil, in a tomato sauce.  However, I have also cooked them with sundried tomatoes as well and they are very delicious.

Every Greek family has a Kotopoulo Lemonato recipe.  Kotopoulo means chicken and lemonato, which means lemony, is the method the dish is cooked with lemon and usually with oregano.
