GreekCook

I often do a much simpler version of lamb dish David, all I basically do is take a leg of lamb poke holes in it and stuff them with salt pepper and a garlic clove, rub the leg with a salt pepper mixture and cook it in an uncovered dish in a low low oven for 12-14 hours..the result is amazing...just before serving I pop under a hot grill to crisp the fat...I add no liquid at all while cooking and just make a gravy by deglazing the pan with some wine at the end.Using any juices the lamb has shed

I use my microwave to make great pasta sauce using bacon mushrooms fresh cream and cheese, basically I nuke the mushrooms until they have released their liquid then add the bacon, nuke for another minute or so then add cream, cheese salt and pepper nuke for another few minutes until mixture thickens, by that time pasta has cooked so all I do is combine and eat...all done in the time it takes the pasta to boil.

You can also try a Greek Fava dip...perfect for summer as it can be eaten cold Here's a link Fava

It's an Urban myth; the teaspoon (metal, plastic or otherwise) has no impact on the fizz retention. ← Yeah I also saw that episode of Mythbusters Seems the best way to keep the bubbles is just cork it

Hi Alexus Check your batteries

Why do I always do this??!!!! Do not read this forum if you are hungry and it is 5.00am.... Do not read this forum if you are hungry and it is 5.00am Super foods guys Well done!!!!

Greek Style..Boil then add finally chopped raw garlic, olive oil and lemon juice..the perfect side to grilled fish (Sweet and Simple yum yum)

Just out of curiosity how can he possibly tell the difference if it's been cooked and creamed...What I mean is, how would it differ from canned spinach or even fresh cooked creamed spinach??

Awesome In Greece, sheep heads are the norm, most shops that sell food on the spit (Rotissiried ?) chicken, baby pig, lamb obviously have few sheep/goats heads going as well. After twenty two years in Greece I still can't bring myself to try one but I have managed to reach the point where I can eat(without going off my meal) in the company of someone eating a head....took a loooooong tome

Why would you do that? Potatoes are a complex carbohydrate and fat free!

I often make mashed potatoes without butter especially when I have them with a main dish that has gravy....I personally can't taste that much of a difference and I can eat lots of mash without feeling guilty

Nope you're not crazy, I do the same thing and there is definitely a different taste

Awesome percyn and nonblonde Yummmmm!!!!

What about Dirty Rice

I was about to ask about the "favism" issue, here in Greece fava is very rarely eaten just cooked, apparently if you cook the beans for a long time they become safe to eat, but then again favism tend to affect Mediterranean countries if I'm not mistaken
