Pies are our favorite comfort food and we like them especially with vegetables. A rather particular vegetable for a pie is the red pepper, but it makes for a brilliant pie to be honest! In Greece we use Florina pepper which has a distinguished rich sweet flavor. If not found, one can use any type of horn shaped red pepper
Undoubtedly, you’re going to fall in love with this pie that we’ve got for you today!
Ground beef pies are a favorite in Greek cuisine and today we’re going to make it with leek which is in season!
In the Greek cuisine the list of pies is endless. Any kind of ingredient can become a pie, plus every region in the country has its own way of making pies. We are a nation that adores pies! No doubt about that!
These little, golden cheese pies that we’ve got for you today are the perfect appetizer…or snack. Made with philo pastry, they’re perfectly crispy on the outside, whereas on the inside hides a delicious creamy filling, slightly tangy and salty thanks to the feta cheese which is the key ingredient.
We’ve posted a lot of Greek pies on this blog, all of them wonderful, scrumptious and ideal as comfort food. But the one we’ve got for you today is the one that you’ve been waiting for! (And wondering why it took us so long to post it!)
And even if autumn is to end in a few days, pumpkins are still the season’s favorite ingredient. Combine them with feta cheese and you get one of the finest Greek savory pies!
It’s the season for artichokes and as all Mediterranean people Greeks too, adore cooking this lovely, unique in its taste vegetable.
