Recipes

  • Homemade goat yogurt

    Homemade goat yogurt, super easy to do in your slow cooker! The result is clean tasting, tart but not too tart, and the best part is you know exactly what’s in it - no tapioca starch or other fillers.
  • Rose petal shortbread

    Rose petal shortbread, in a nod to Valentine’s Day. I love baking with rose petals and rose water.
  • Chicken with peas

    Κοτόπουλο με αρακά - Chicken with peas. My two year old was screaming “chicken!” repeatedly and impatiently as I rushed to take this pic, and then he had three servings! So you know it’s good!
  • Slow roasted lamb shoulder in parchment

    Slow roasted lamb shoulder in parchment. Posting this now because doubt I’ll be able to take pics once this is ready and guests are hungry! 
  • Manouri & Greek yogurt cheesecake

    Manouri & Greek yogurt cheesecake. This was my Easter pièce de résistance! Rich and creamy manouri is a perfect candidate for cheesecake, and by contrast the yogurt adds a light and tangy touch.
  • Briam

    Briam is my go-to dish when there have been a lot of meat-filled days (lamb-filled days lately, to be more precise!). 
  • Bread and butter pudding

    Bread and butter pudding made with the last of the Easter tsoureki. If you don’t have tsoureki, try it with brioche or challah!
  • Soutzoukakia

    Soutzoukakia are cumin-laced meatballs served in a luscious tomato sauce. Perfect over rice or even mashed or fried potatoes. Check my stories to see how to make this dish step-by-step!
  • Spinach, fennel frond, and feta pies with a Greek yogurt filo pastry

    Spinach, fennel frond, and feta pies with a Greek yogurt filo pastry. Called kourou, this pastry is so simple to make and I love that it uses yogurt. Watch out for the recipe shown step by step in my stories!
  • Cod plaki

    Leftovers at the office! Cod plaki - cod fillets baked in the oven the Greek way!
  • Vegan pumpkin spice latte cake

    Vegan pumpkin spice latte cake! My day job is at @allrecipes and one of our lovely users just posted this recipe on the site. I interrupt our regular #Greek programming for this bc it's soooo good! I made it Saturday and it's still gorgeously moist.
  • Greek pork chops

    Cold and rainy Wednesday night in #LA calls for comforting #Greek pork chops and a superb bottle of @kiryianni from @klwines
