Patates me avga (Potatoes and eggs)

This is a quick and easy recipe that you can whip up in about 15 minutes. I don't know where this originated exactly but I can remember eating this way back when I was a little tacker. As a youngster I always had this with potatoes and eggs but over the years I've modified it by adding other ingredients, such as mushrooms, peppers etc, just as most people do with scrambled eggs. When I made this and took a photo I used mushrooms (I couldn't resist).

Ingredients:

4 eggs
3 potatoes
salt
pepper

Pastitsio

 I love this recipe, and one of my favorite Greek recipes, it looks similar to Lasagnia but that's where the differences end. It uses thick spaghetti rather than sheets of pasta. It takes some time to prepare but is well worth it in the end. It takes about 30 mins to prepare and about 45 minutes to cook.

Avgolemono (Lemon mixture)

This mixture is used to add to the chicken soup if you want some tang in your soup. It can be used for other soups which is why I have created a seperate recipe. The Greek word avgolemono is a combination of two words, the first is avgo (egg) and lemoni (lemon). So you only require 2 ingredients for this but enhances the taste of the chicken soup two fold.

Kotosoupa (Chicken soup)

This recipe is very easy and is one of my favourites during winter. It's very easy to make and takes roughly 30-40 minutes to make.

Psarosoupa (Fish soup)

This fish soup is another favourite for the winter months, try and get the flathead or whaterver fish your using as fresh as possible. Also be extra careful in removing all the bones from the flesh.

Chicken with potatoes (Kota me patates)

Here's a recipe that's quick to prepare but takes about 1 hour and 45 minutes to cook. I love this one because I can prepare it in the morning and place it in the fridge and place in the oven ahead of time.
