Greek food and recipes

Going Greek in the kitchen...

Portikalopita
As my love affair with Greece continued, I wanted to recreate the tastes and smells of the country that captured my heart when back at home. The best place to do that is the kitchen, since so much of Greek life and culture centres around food.

In the recipe section of my site you will find some of the dishes referred to in 'One last Letter from Greece' and I hope you have fun re-creating them to bring a bit of Methoni onto your dining table. Tag me on social and share your pics of the dishes! 
Italian and French cuisines are much lauded, but Greek is oft forgotten. It's much more than Moussaka. The challenge of course with re-creating any cuisine back at home is the year round growing climate of Greece, that makes the fruit and vegetables so tasty. If you can get local or organic produce and where I live in Cornwall has an abundance of local food suppliers, it will pay off as it will make your simple Greek dishes sing with flavour.
