Hi Akis,im a filipina helper of a greek family here in saudi,we got to used most of your recipes to prepare our dish everyday,now i learned about more Greek recipes because of your channel,pls keep posting and sharing your recipes its a big help for me to cook a food for the family that i worked for.Efaristo 😊
I just found you from Food Tube and I'm watching all of your videos. My hubby is obsessed with Greek food so I'm gonna watch all of your videos and learn how to make the dishes properly, thank you!!! Love from Hawaii!!! 💚💚💚
Kalimera Akis! I just discovered your channel and i love the way you cook. My husband is Greek and sometime he misses greek food. Anddd i'm so glad i found your channel! I have tried to cook the shrimp saganaki (simply amazing), pastitsio (didn't expected i can make it,wow!),tzatziki sauce (🖒),roast chicken with lemon and potatoes (poli nostimo!), i even tried your way to make omelette!😄. And i will try all your recipe. Really inspiring. Keep doing this great job! All the best for you!
Akis, thank you so much. After researching many recipes for this dish, yours stood out from the rest. You’re also awesome to watch. I made this for my family yesterday and it was to die for. The nicest thing we’ve eaten for ages! You’ve absolutely ignited a new passion for Greek food. I’ll be making your mushroom casserole next. Thanks again!
I tried the recipe and it tasted even better than those amazing saganakis I tried in Greece this summer! So happy I can enjoy shrimp saganaki whenever I want:) BTW the star anis and uzo add a nice touch, giving you the feeling of being in the Greek islands enjoying some mezes with uzo;)
heads/tails/shells in a separate pot to super concentrate small amount of stock for veggie cooking. That's how I would do it....though I've never seen this before it looks delish...thanks Akis :)
It doesn't qualify as the authentic Greek shrimp saganaki experience until you start dipping good quality bread (with sourdough starter preferably) in that heavenly tomato-feta-shrimp flavoured sauce (wash it down with an extra-cold beer).
I was looking for a shrimp saganaki recipe (using shrimp with the heads on) and I'm glad I stumbled onto your channel! BTW I love how you pronounce oregano 😛
Hi Akis, this looks delicious, we will try it! I have a question though. We do not like to leave the head on the shrimp while cooking or serving them with the head still on. Is it necessary for the flavour to leave it on, or can you remove it and then cook it in the sauce? Thanks, Petra
Aaaah... Shrimp... My old cousin lives in Louisiana and I stayed there for a summer. She took me to have bbqued shrimp which is like shrimp in butter sauce, it was heavenly, But she accidentally made some craw dads at her house and didn't take out the trash in time so it somehow cured the wood on the inside of her fancy built in trash can... Shudder... That was not a good smell as far as I know it still smells And that was 15 yrs ago
i am not a professional chef but i can tell you that shrimp saganaki was created and named to be a seafood dish. I don't believe the flavors and the texture of the meal will be the same. Maybe you can try using the chicken that they make extra thin but the true flavor comes from the shrimp mixed with the rest of the ingredients. my opinion only..no disrespect :)
@@akispetretzikisen I had figured it out a few months ago! :) maybe back in 2016 your director should used solid color kitchen towels, those pink checker towel just jump out of the screen for the viewers :) now your current kitchen lab only used black or gray towels, it's much better to match your decor. I also notice the brown square IKEA plate, because I have the same plate lol

i have made this recipe and it is ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS. The roasted feta cheese provides an extra flavour! i will repeat it, for sure.
thanks! glad you liked it!

Hey Akis! What can i put instead of ouzo because I don't have any and I really need to impress my Greek dad tonight.
You can use wine.
Kalimera Akis!

thanks!!!
That's how it's pronounced?!?
Can't get shrimp like that where I live. No head on. Just the tail and torso parts. So sad that looked really good.
Great video, it inspires me to make more vidoes since im a beginner youtuber. But i see why you like sharing recipes. :)
Cooking shrimp with the heads on in my experience makes them taste WAY WAY WAY too "fishy" and like the floor of the ocean. Just too much.
Im skipping the flambé!
u r awesome akis🙏 love from india
👍😍😋👌👩🍳
i did this with mussels, and then put it in tortillas with fresh basil, and cucumber thinly sliced with most of its water removed. Heavenly Burritos
CrushClaw .. 😍
That shirt though...
One of my all-time meze favourites, so delicious!
Very nice akis!you are the best....imaste para poli perifani
Seafood and feta cheese 😋 Yum , thank you for the recipe
No Saganaki , “ σαχανάκι “
akis, can I substitute feta cheese with mozzarella?
you can... different taste though!
Shrimp scatanaki?
Καλησπέρα Άκη μου.Πάρα πολύ ωραίο φαγάκι.Είδες το τυρί πάει παντού.Να είσαι καλά 👌💯👌
the ordinary dishes are the best!
the star of this show i think is the oven set to fan.
This reminds me of the Shrimp Saganaki I'd order from a place in Molivos, Lesbos. Great memories. Delicious dish.
I love this channel
I've just made it without ouzo because I didn't had any, but the taste was allmoste the same I've had in greece.
Don´t serve it on a plate, but put in in the middle of the table with some nice crusty bread for mopping up all the sauce.... heaven!
Seafood and feta is a weird combination. You did the same with squid Akis! Will have to try!
Try it, you'll freaking love it. Most Greeks go crazy over these kinds of recipes.
I ate this dish for the first time in Molos fish restaurant in Rhodes - Lindos. I will never forget this taste!
WOOOW I love it ... it looks delicious
Hi Akis, this looks delicious, we will try it! I have a question though. We do not like to leave the head on the shrimp while cooking or serving them with the head still on. Is it necessary for the flavour to leave it on, or can you remove it and then cook it in the sauce? Thanks, Petra
+TheMermaid I think he keeps the head on so the shrimp doesn't come out dry.
+Alex Duma you answered yourself :-)
What a great recipe!Thank you!We love Greek food!
We will tray it
PERFECTION.
Mmm poly oreo!!!
Perfect

+Frances Trotter wow...
Awesome
I'm confused. I thought saganaki was a type of cheese, different than feta? Anyways, this looks delicious. Thank you so much Akis
Hmm this type of saganaki needs white cheese like feta cheese.
Le classique bondage :D
Bondage? I think you are in the wrong channel mate 😂😂😂
akis can I use different type of shrimp?
+The Gaming Wolf sure
Hi, I have a question. I don't have ouzo and I don't know where can I buy... Can I use any different alkohol instead of ouzo? Jakub
pernod or any other anise seed scented drink..
Looks great, I csn almost smell and taste it! :-)
This sh*t is amazing! And so simple. Thanks, Akis!
Would this be good if i use chicken instead of shrimp?
sure
+Akis Kitchen Thanks

+Katerina Greek Thanks for the suggestion.
+nimz no problem! :)
ultim8 mediterranean dish
you definitely have a fan from Malaysia
Hey, there! Which booze would recommend for substituting the ouzo,, since I can't get hold of it?
where are you from?
What is the next best cheese option? 🤔
Definitely no melting cheese. My best guess from non Greek cheese would be gruyere.
Oh yeahhh that looks goooood 😋
Oh that looks amazing.
that t-shirt :p
the recipe looks lovely
i love shrimp. funny t shirt
I will coming to u cook for me pls 🙊
mhmmmmmmm :D

You chould try it!
Shrimp and feta 🤔
Are you sure , Akis ?

Very nice!
Per favore indicate ℉→→℃ Grazie
+tmaligno 200 C
190°C he said it at the beginning of the video
+julie collot listen to 00:28
Perfect
Love it!
What would you serve this with?
You would serve this on it’s own… some slices of bread to mop up the sauce.
😍😍👍👍
❤❤❤
Why is your oven hidden by te towels? Xx
cause i do not want you to see the reflection of the camera crew...
Well, I never thought of that! (I'm blonde!) Xx
