Happy Easter

Happy Easter everyone.

This is the first time I’ve managed to successfully make hot cross buns. I used the recipe from a Greek chef I was recommended by my landlady. They were delicious.

And the good thing is it’s actually Greek Orthodox Easter next weekend so I can make them again. YUM.

Been a while between posts. Where does the time go?
This was tea last night. Crispy zucchini, roasted tomatoes and chickpeas and garlic bread.
Glass of wine an optional extra x

How I love the Mediterranean diet.

Instructions in the comments.

It must be the weekend… pancakes for breakfast before we head to the market.

A great breakfast option over the Christmas break.

I make them with half wholemeal flour, less sugar (but still some so the pancakes are crispy) and oil instead of butter. (Recipe on page).

Served today with Greek yoghurt and blueberries 🫐

What is your favourite topping?

Weekend cooking vibes.

My first attempt at Avgolemono Greek chicken soup turned out more risotto like as I put in a little too much rice. But was delicious. Thanks for the suggestion Susie. I will keep practicing.

Roasted whole cauliflower and broccoli. The broccoli was bigger than the cauliflower but took the same time to cook. Both brushed with butter/oil and herbs & spices.

Chocolate orange cake baked in my new cake tin. Looks fancy…

What did you cook or eat out at the weekend?

Ready for a new week ahead xx

What’s not to love about frozen veg. Good to have in your freezer for a rainy day or a time poor day.

Last night I added frozen peas to my risotto as an extra veg.
And the other day I added the Mexican veg to my fish wraps. I’ve never had Mexican veg before, which was veg with Mexican spices. Not a bad idea.

Always good to add extra veggies to your diet. They are nutrient dense, full of vitamins and minerals and help keep you regular.

What happened to the leeks? Thanks for the suggestions…

Dish 1 - leek and chicken risotto
Dish 2&3 - leek bruschetta (one at home with mushrooms and tomato & one to take to our landlords for drinks)
Dish 4 - leek & potato soup
Dish 5 - the base of a veggie/lentil dish.

It’s a versatile veggie….

Yesterday we plucked up the courage & bought a whole fish. Bit of background is that white fish here are sold mainly whole. We’ve been thinking about it for a while as neither of us have filleted a fish before….
However, thanks to YouTube we had instructions and it was a success. The fillets we got were not the biggest and I’m sure we can be a bit more thorough next time but we used the rest to make stock (using one of last week’s leeks).
We made fish wraps and if we do say so ourselves they were delicious 😋.
Fish recipes to follow…

What’s your favourite fish recipe?

Happy 21st birthday to my favourite daughter. I miss our livestreams together. Hope you have a great day with your brother, welcome back to Oz & enjoy the yummy 🧁 🧁. (Thanks for fetching her from the airport Amelia)

The joy of language barriers. We ended up with lots of leeks as we couldn’t work out how to get only one! Many leek recipes this week. Suggestions welcome.
We also bought so much that we stopped to buy a trolley to pull it up the hill home 😀

I was like a kid in a sweetie shop when we pulled up at this roadside stall. The mandarins were delicious and the stall holder was trying to teach me the names of the fruit in Greek. I remember ‘mandarini’. 🍊and lemoni 🍋 😀
We also bought some delicious fresh walnuts.

This week I have been lucky enough to be in Athens so no cooking for me which I actually did miss!
Here is a selection of the yummy foods I’ve eaten: a koulouri sandwich, with feta, tomato and olive Tapenade; beautifully cooked fish; dolmades (stuffed vine leaves); grilled halloumi and cheese crusted zucchini.
Challenge for next week is to replicate the zucchini and to try to learn how to fillet a fish! Looks easy on you tube 😀. Watch this space for bloopers….

Today was a trip to the baker for all fine baked goods.
Started with croissants (not Greek!) complete with chocolate spread inside that we did not know was there. We did not need 1 each!
Then was traditional Greek koulouri for lunch with pan fried aubergine and feta. Am a big fan of koulouri (and aubergine). We think a cross between a bagel & a pretzel. Delicious
