Florina red peppers chutney

A nice recipe to accompany any cold or grilled meat or to enrich other sauces with. Florina peppers are Greece's finest and famous for their sweetness and their distinctive aroma and we use them in Greece in many recipes. They also peel very easily. You can always substitute with pimento peppers or red bell peppers

Cannelloni stuffed with mixed Summer vegies and feta cheese

I think that cannelloni must be one of the most popular varieties of pasta. They are so convenient (as more or less all types of pasta are to be fair) and there are so many different fillings you can use to fill them and the fact that usually are cooked in the oven makes them even more popular since you don't need to stand over a pot all the time... This version of stuffed cannelloni is full of Summer vegetables and no meat involved but still they are delicious! You can play with the herbs you can use for the filling or the cheese and use those you like better

Double cooked beef "kapamas" with Spring onions

A very tasty, light and filling recipe to enjoy for a Sunday meal. The term "Kapamas" has its roots in the Turkish language and refers to the way the food is cooked- in the pot covered with the pot lid all way through. Always slowly cooked and the meat usually cut in medium or smaller pieces. The classic recipe demands beef or lamb but you can always substitute with chicken, pork or even rabbit meat. This version is lighter with a white sauce and the subtle aroma and taste of the Spring onions
