Moussaka
Roasted eggplant layered with a beef sauce spiced with cinnamon and oregano, under a thick bechamel enriched with egg yolks and cheese that sets into a custard as it bakes.
Horiatiki Greek Village Salad
Ripe tomatoes, cucumber, green pepper, and onion under a slab of feta, dressed with nothing but olive oil and dried oregano. It stands or falls on the tomatoes.
Greek Yogurt with Honey and Walnuts
Thick strained yogurt under toasted walnuts and a spoonful of honey. Four ingredients, no cooking, and the contrast between cold tart yogurt and warm honey is the whole point.
Greek Lemon Roasted Potatoes
Potato wedges braised in the oven in lemon juice, olive oil, garlic and oregano, then roasted uncovered until the liquid reduces to a syrupy glaze and the edges brown.
Greek Baked Fish Plaki
White fish fillets baked under a slow-cooked tomato, onion and olive oil sauce with oregano and lemon. The sauce reduces around the fish so it needs no thickener.
