Blueberry Galette
Blueberry Galette, an easy recipe for those looking to getting into pie baking.
Sea Bass Carpaccio
Today the fish is sea bass, tomorrow it may be sea bream or corvina the next. The ingredients are few: fish, salt, lemon, ground pepper, diced mild chili, Greek extra-virgin olive oil, chives.
Grilled Calamari Skewers
While fried is everyone’s favourites, grilled calamari should get equal billing. It’s easier to prepare, less fuss and mess and it cooks quickly.
Blueberry Topping
I love blueberries and they often become a topping for cheesecake. I still like the cherry topping but it’s been overdone. Blueberries are the new cherries.
Spanakorizo With Shrimp
Spanakorizo – a classic Greek dish which is literally translated as spinach-rice. There are subtle variances to the dish, depending on the household and my twist is to top it/marry it with shrimp.
Lemon Shrimp Linguine
This pasta dish has been in my back pocket of recipes for over a decade. I can cook it on a weeknight, weekend, serve to house guests or catered events. It’s easy, quick, delicious!
Poached Fish with Oil & Lemon Sauce
Poaching fish is another method to cook and enjoy fish. A rich sauce made of reduced poaching liquid, lemon, extra virgin olive, salt and pepper and some herbs.
Taramokeftedes
A few years ago I made Taramokeftedes for a Greek Supper Club. The tarama was the base for making pseudo meatballs along with bread and lots of onion and herbs.
These turned out remarkably well and they are a great offering to help break up the monotony of eating the usual Lenten fare.

Greek Style Roast Chicken Thighs
The flavour profile here is classic Greek: lemon, garlic, salt, pepper, dried Greek oregano. This chicken is best with roast potatoes or fries and it’s doable weeknight or weekend.
