Greek Seafood Recipes

A country with more coastline than continental France eats fish simply: grilled whole, dressed with oil and lemon, and never over-handled.

Greek cooking uses a narrow pantry very well. A handful of ingredients appear again and again, in different combinations and cooked in different ways, and knowing what each one does is more useful than memorising individual recipes.

Dishes built on it include Htapodi sta karvouna, Garides saganaki, Taramosalata, Bakaliaros skordalia, Bourdeto and Htapodi krasato.

Every recipe on Kalliopi's Kitchen carries the dish's Greek name and a pronunciation, its region where that is meaningful, ingredient quantities in both metric and imperial, and an honest note on what commonly goes wrong. Nutrition figures are calculated estimates and are labelled as such.
