So I made baba gahnuosh, greek pita bread, tsaziki and steak for dinner, all from Akis. It was all so delicious! Now, I am going to garden center to get all these herbs like Thyme, Dill etc. and plant them in my boring front yard. Thank you, Akis. Not only I learn how cook Greek food, I also get to know different herbs and learn how to use them. 😊
@Anton. I was 16 years old when my parents came back to the US. Still a kid. But i should had gone back to visit family, which i didn't. Now too late. Most have past away
I'm Italian and love love love meatballs. Never tried mint cumin thyme and oregano, though. I will experiment with your recipe. I'm sure they are delicious. I think I'll add two garlic cloves though! Xo
absolutely beautiful! In a single video I learned so much! - squeeze out the juices from onion and garlic before adding them to the meat - kneed the dough well to bring out the flavour - add sugar to the tomatoes because they aren't as ripe in seasons other than summer Such an informative and great chef! Now I really want to eat something😩😂
I always end up with soggy meatballs each time i prepare it, your recipe is absolute the hammer...👍 i tried it, it came out perfectly, the best meatballs i've ever made, My hubby enjoyed it and we felt like we were in Greece already!! Amazing recipe thank you very plenty for sharing......😊
The kitchen would fill with the aroma of my Mom's cumin keftedes when I was a young. No tomato sauce though. Sliced lemons on the side as my Poppa liked them. I've done them with avgolemeno sauce but this tomato based recipe sounds absolutely delicious especially with the added cinnamon. I will try them as such. Thanks!
My son calls these YiaYia Balls. The YiaYias at church make them a few times every year and the kids love them. If we weren't in the middle of Nativity Fast I would make these tonight.
Pro tip: Use fewer gloves that go to waste. You can use a plate to cover that bowl in an almost empty fridge in a show kitchen, no need for cling film. Someone will do the dishes for you anyway. That will benefit the planet and give you more time at the hair salon! Love your recipes!
Akn I am coming to Greece 🇬🇷 in Sept and first day out, I will make sure to visit your restaurants and taste all the goodness and meet you ! You know you have done something to us here στα ξενα and have added you into our families . We love❤️❤️❤️ You a whole bunch!
6:25 in the video you say 1-2 minutes but in the recipe in the link I read "Fry in batches for 7-8 minutes. Remove and place in absorbent paper." Should they be fried 2 minutes or 8?

I really love all your videos, this one includes, but i think you used too many gloves on it, and we need to low in plastic waste... Still great work, I love every recipe.

I lived in Greece from 1974 to 1980. I can still remember the flavors of my grandmother's keftedes. And Saligardia my favorite
Kickbrass 5.56 You should have stayed there. I probably would have.

Really love that herb section.... something everyone would like in their kitchen.
"as few utensils as we can (...) because nobody wants to wash them after" :D Yeaah! That's totally my approach :D
You look sad but EVERYTHING IS GONNA BE ALRIGHT MY GREEK fellow ! We love you man !

Definitely going to try this. Why does Greek food always have to look, sound, smell, and taste so good
they invented europe.
this is one of my favorite cooking channels!!
I just love watching his handsome face and he’s way of talking. His creativity is marvellous down to its Greek roots.

They look fantastic I will certainly be trying this
I never thought meatballs could taste this good , wow , wow , wow, what an amazing flavour.
He’s adorable!
Drool...! "Honey, guess what we're having this weekend? Akis told me to make them!"
Made these yesterday and they were honestly the best meatballs I've ever had! The sauce was delicious too, I'm so glad I found this video.
I could eat that whole plate to myself! And served with French fries is the best way.
Just made this, i am soo happy and its delicious! Cinnamon in tomato sos is a great touch. Thanks Akis!
Great recipe, has become my go to meatball recipe! I was always on the fence about mint but it goes really well with this recipe.
I love watching your videos, I get motivate to cook more! Thank you!
The greek diet is said to be one of the healthiest ever, so I guess there is no harm in deep-frying stuff every now and then.
looks like a simple tasty meal
