Another appetizer to enjoy along with your wine, ouzo or beer! Fluffy and delicious balls, full of Greek Summer (but not only) aromas. If you don't like fennel feel free to substitute with dill. The potato balls will still be delicious

Seafood moussakas with aubergines and courgettes
Here we have a really rich in flavours (and ingredients) version of Moussaka! Rather unusual combination the crayfish with the rest of the ingredients but, trust me, with a great taste! In this version courgettes are also added next to the classic combination of aubergines and potatoes

Tart with fresh figs and lemon marmalade
Figs are in season and in this recipe they go perfectly well with the lemon marmalade enjoying a very tasty fruit tart! You can substitute the lemon with a 3 citrus fruits marmalade or with some sweet/sour "dessert spoon" sweet like bergamot orange (300gr.) which you will mash first in a blender. If you can't get bothered with the home made pastry you can always use store-bought shortcrust or puff pastry

Moustokouloura - Crunchy grape must cookies
These are one of the so many different types of cookies we have in Greece. Ideal for your tea and coffee or a healthy snack for the kids! Now it's really their season because of the grape must people gather after harvesting the grapes. Grape must is made using the juice squeezed from fresh grapes. In Greece, large quantities are gathered during the September grape harvest, and it's a great project, pure and natural! It also freezes well and can be used throughout the year. Try out these lovely, crunchy and fragrant must cookies, they are really worth the effort whenever you can find must. There are a few varieties of the recipe, this one gives you more crunchy than soft type of cookies

Courgette "burgers" with feta cheese and spiced red peppers sauce
A delicious Summer meze dish to enjoy along with ouzo, beer or wine! Of course we are talking about vegetarian "burgers" here but still the taste is excellent! There are many versions based on courgettes to create some delicious dishes enjoying this popular Summer vegetable and definitely this is one of those! It is always better to use fresh peppers and roast them yourselves to make the sauce but it is not a crime to use store-bought ones in jar
