As always simply brilliant !!! I grew up in a predominantly Greek neighbourhood in Australia ( the other Greece lol ). I know Greek food and love it, today I will be cooking Lamb this way and just to make it better we will be drinking Tsikoudia from Crete. Love your channel it's always high energy easy and delicious food.
Cooked pita bread almost every day during the last week, also made a huge bowl of tzatziki sauce and a big bowl of loukoumades sweets. For main dishes I cooked souvlaki, chicken gyro, stuffed peppers, meatballs, greek style potatoes and lentil soup. After that week, I'll need to focus more on vegetables, lol. But everything was successful and super yummy :)
Hi Akis I am from little old New Zealand couldn't find Greek Olive oil had to make do with Spanish :-( Made this dish with chicken worked great I am hooked on Greek food and working my way through your recipes Keep the coming!!
Although no oil tastes the same, if you can't find Greek, settle for Italian. Spanish export oil is often mixed (greek italian, and spanish) oils and often too bitter. I would avoid Spanish oil although it is the easiest to find. Greek Olive oil is full of flavor, usually single variety and location. Like a good scotch single malt or exquisite wine. You can just have it on some bread with salt and oregano and tastes amazing, and usually is smooth with low acidity.
@@cristinedejongh8452 You will ask around in Greece for restaurant which makes "Magirefta" foods (Greek cooked/casserole foods). Most tavernas choose to bypass for 2 reasons, one in the past Greeks when going out did not want to eat the house Grandma or ma foods, they went out on a Sunday to eat fish or meat and so the cooked ones are for house. The other, they take preparation and time to make. Now it is a little more used outside with fewer people cooking at home and with wanting to eat a little healthier when getting delivery. Ask for place with "Magirefta" foods.
Thank you for your videos. I am a chef as well and also Greek. However I was adopted and never learned how to cook Greek food, not in school or at home. And I've never cared for geek food either. In Texas all we have are dolmas in a can and gyros. Not a great selection. I've been trying to understand my culture more and reading on geek food. I truly love your foods. You have shown me that Greek food is more than just gyros. And that it's very similar to my style of cooking. Thank you so much for the insight. I can't wait for my next dinner party. This dish will definitely be on the menu. 😉
There's a similar version to it in our Asian cuisine in which we add black-eyed beans, no lettuce just dill in it also no eggs or lemon juice and served next to white rice. 😊
oh my word! his accent! I just luvvvvit! --1:50 "and now simmer furrr about wang - wang ahnga khalf 'owa ..." ; 2:00 "... ahn now, tha lamP is rreaddy!" 💛 it makes me want to watch and eat all being cooked.
Just made this. It was FANTASTIC! And your energy and enthusiasm in this video made it really fun to follow along with your instructions. Thanks for the recipe!
My Papou used to make the best fricassee every Easter. Never had the courage to try to make it myself but I think I'll try now! Thank you for this recipe
God I like you and the way you make food & cooking so delicious and easy. There was no way I couldn't've subscribe to your channel. I was smiling by the end. You really know, how to connect with your viewers ... PERFECT! : ).
I love your recipes and I am enjoying cooking Greek food . But I am Italian and of course I am using for the recipes the excellent Sicilian extra virgin olive oil ! Thanks
Thank You very mutch mr. greek man🙂 i have a little deersteak that i want to use with your resepy. From my sister in law, and we are ,my mother and i , are going to have that for cristmass dinner.😋
Thank you Aki 🙏for explaining in English as I’m in Australia and forgot some Greek words love it I’m making this for our Easter 🐣 magirirsa 💗Happy Easter you are great
I just LOVE your presentation 💘😻💜 can't wait to try this however I have to find greek olive oil ...... I live in the middle of nowhere USA 🇺🇸 so might have to order it 😅
Well i tried both (lived in both Greece and Italy) and i can assure you, Greek is way tastier and dense. The southern Italian olive oil is the only one contesting the greek ones, i guess it's because the south Italian climate is like the greek one, which is the best for the olive trees!
I usually buy sicilian and calabrian olive oils...now I must buy greek one, just to taste it! Cause i love tastier and denser flavor in olive oil. I will keep you posted on my opinion for sure.
Would really love to see very traditional Greek dishes as well. Is there any way you can also put together Afelia. I know it’s from Cyprus but so good and technically still Greek
Daniel P. C Me too! I can eat it straight from the grill but not from pot! You can not remove the smell ! You can make this recipe with pork, chicken or other meat that you like.My mother used to make fricasse with pork! It's a lovely winter dish! :)

I really liked this one Akis.. i want more traditional greek foods pls man..
Started watching your recipes recently and I already spent 2 litres of olive oil in a week. LOL
ElvinaM what have you cooked?

ElvinaM if you've used so much just by watching, imagine when you'll start cooking. ☺
But was it GREEK extra virgin olive oil?
Is this guy adorable or what?!

Akis--I'd love to see more lamb dishes. Would you be kind enough to include some in future episodes?
where can I eat this in Athens ?
in Ollandia not in the Greek taverne.

@@akispetretzikisen Also Mageiritsa and Aginares ala Polita!
Thank you Aki 🙏for explaining in English as I’m in Australia and forgot some Greek words love it I’m making this for our Easter 🐣 magirirsa 💗Happy Easter you are great
Chef can you cook the Greek lemon pepper fish? i need to cook this and done my project.Plz..
I just LOVE your presentation 💘😻💜 can't wait to try this however I have to find greek olive oil ...... I live in the middle of nowhere USA 🇺🇸 so might have to order it 😅
what is a good alternative to dill? i really don't like the taste of it but this recipe looks so gooooooood
DeXtar any herb you like basically, I would recommend parsley or mint, both work great with lamb
is greek extra virgin olive oil good? I'm tempted to buy some after watching your recipes!!
it is the best actually
Akis Kitchen I'm sure some Italians will disagree on your comment 😂
Well i tried both (lived in both Greece and Italy) and i can assure you, Greek is way tastier and dense.

Most of the Greek Extra virgin olive oil goes to Italy . They baptize it Italian with a huge price .
Typical Italian style.
amoaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah , wonderful , i laik they siryan food because it always contains tahini
served with a huge loaf of rustic bread (prefered horiatico) to make papara in the sauce.
pwntmatch HAHAHAHHAAAA
Would really love to see very traditional Greek dishes as well. Is there any way you can also put together Afelia. I know it’s from Cyprus but so good and technically still Greek
Here you are. akispetretzikis.com/en/categories/kreas/afelia-choirino-krasato
bon sang!
J'ai faim...
yummm so delicious!!!
Maria Sant'Anna yes he is
And ofcourse, extra virgin GREEK olive oil!!!
ofcourse!
I've had this a few times in Greece but never with tahini. Has anyone tried it both ways and which one was better?
Awesomeness!!! xoxo Aki, ti na shoupo!! S'agapao :-)
wow! Thank you Akis.
btw, how can you remove the unpleasant smell of lamb?
Daniel P. C Me too! I can eat it straight from the grill but not from pot! You can not remove the smell ! You can make this recipe with pork, chicken or other meat that you like.My mother used to make fricasse with pork! It's a lovely winter dish! :)
you can use pork or chicken instead
yas yas i love your channel ❤💕💕
Greek background music would be nice 🇬🇷💙
Looks tastety
Thanks akis. I'm not worried about cook any more
Yayyyyy!!!! Lamb!
