Method

One-Pan Greek Recipes

Dishes where the meat, the vegetables and the starch all go into the same tin and come out together. Sunday lunch with almost no washing up.

Technique in Greek home cooking tends to be simple and unhurried. There is very little last-minute work, very few sauces made to order, and a great deal of food that improves for sitting around. Most of the skill is in judgement rather than in knife work.

Recipes using this method include Patates lemonates, Gemista, Briam, Kleftiko, Garides saganaki and Strapatsada.

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.
