Does anyone know a good recipe for a Greek style omelette or eggs? Thanks :)
 
Greek style eggs are the best!

Here is how I make them (either scrambled or omelet):
- Eggs
- Greek oregano
- Salt
- Pepper
- Crumbled Greek Feta cheese

Here are some other Greek style egg recipes as well:

Enjoy! :)

Best recipe for Greek eggs is called kagianas you'll need
4 eggs
1/2 kg tomatoes
1 onion
1 slice of Garlic
3-4 table spoon olive oil
50gr feta cheese
1 tea spoon paprika
1 tea spoon origano
1 tea spoon basil
1/2 tea spoon cumin
2 table spoon balsamic vinegar
1 table spoon sugar
Pepper
You heat your pan and you put on the olive oil, the garlic and the sliced onion. You add the sugar and when it's melted you put in the balsamic. When the moist is gone you put in everything but the eggs. You let it cook for 5-10 min and then you add the eggs that you have already whisked with some pepper.
Enjoy 🍳😉

You need to try strapatso/strapatsada!
 
This is a Cypriot Omelette recipe but my whole family love it.
For 2 people 2 diced raw potatoes (1 cm squared)larger if you prefer fry in sunflower oil until cooked remove to a frying pan,
add 3 whole beaten eggs, season to taste add the juice of 1 lemon and mix it well .Tip: don't let all the lemon be absorbed as it
will be too dry. Enjoy

Stuffed grape leaves - how much filling?

I haven't made stuffed grape leaves in a while and I have some questions.

First of all, I am having a hard time judging how much filling to put in each leaf? I have a friend who helped me and tried to explain. She'd put a teaspoon of filling in the leaf, then add or subtract more after looking at it. She's quick rolling, and I have no idea how she knows how much filling.

And she really couldn't explain it - just said that you have to look at it and it's by feel. It sounds like my yiayia and she's younger than me! I told her that and she just shrugged. She tried to talk me through it as we were rolling together but it seemed so random to me.

What are the most famous Greek cheeses?

I've recently embarked on a culinary quest to explore the rich and diverse world of Greek cheeses. From the tangy feta found in traditional Greek salads to the sizzling delights of halloumi, Greece's cheese culture seems incredibly vast and flavorful. 🇬🇷

I'm reaching out to this knowledgeable community to ask: What are the most famous Greek cheeses that you've tried or heard of?

Are there any particular varieties that are a must-try or any hidden gems that rarely escape the borders of Greece? And if you have any delicious recipes or pairings to share, I'd love to hear about those too!

Current food trends in Greece?

I understand that Greece is just like other countries where there might be food trends, new dishes, etc to enjoy.

I'm looking to understand more about the latest trends that are currently shaping it. I'm particularly interested in how traditional Greek recipes are being reimagined by modern chefs, how regional variations are gaining popularity, or if there's a rise in any particular ingredients or cooking methods.

Is anyone here keeping tabs on contemporary movements in Greek food? Maybe you've dined at a restaurant that surprised you with a modern twist on a Greek classic, or you've come across new food blogs with innovative recipes.

The cuisine of Greece is as much about the traditional recipes we all love as it is the trends and the way the cuisine moves forward!

Getting souvlaki tender?

How do you make tender Greek souvlaki? I've attempted various recipes, marinated for different durations, and experimented with both high and low cooking temps, but I seem to be missing the mark for that mouth-watering tenderness commonly found in authentic Greek souvlaki.

Has anyone found a particular method or ingredient that makes a significant difference in achieving that ideal tenderness?

I use ladolemono, a marinate it overnight in ziplock baggies (after I cut the meat in cubes) and then I add them to the skewers and cook them on the grill. I typically use chicken.
