Risotto with cabbage and raisins
The famous all around Greece "Lahanorizo". A traditional Winter recipe which can be served as a main vegetarian meal or as a side dish. In Greece it is ,also, a very common dish during fasting periods. This is my mother's version and the raisins give a nice sweet taste. I should rather say it is one of the two versions she has because she also cooks it with a lemon based sauce

Country style chicken pie
This is a special traditional pie coming from the area of Serres, in Northern Greece. There are countless recipes for chicken pies from all around Greece and each one has its own character. This one differs mainly because the dough is kneaded with the chicken broth

Moussakas with quinces
Not the classic moussaka, I'm telling you! This is a rather unusual version but still such a delicious dish!! Ideal for the Winter months when the quinces are in season. The béchamel sauce is missing in this version and instead of potatoes, quinces are used but all these changes make the difference! Dare and try it out, you won't regret it

Stuffed apples with walnuts and spices
A classic recipe which is very popular in the Greek households during the Winter months. My mother could always see when the apples were ready to "grow roots" in the fridge since me and my dad didn't appreciate them enough so she had the solution..... Sometimes those apples were ending up as a compote and other times as a nice dessert in the oven stuffed with various spices
