The dish looks good in the glossy picture, you’ve followed the recipe slavishly, but still you end up with a flop on your hands. The recipes in this book are different, because they all work.I have developed some, inherited others and refined them all. As any racing tipster will tell you, to be convincing any recommendation must come with its own individual story. So here you fifty, sure-fire, tried-and-tested recipes and fifty stories to go with them. Whilst making an essentially personal choice, I have tried to include some more eccentric dishes, homespun dishes, flamboyant dishes, vegetarian dishes, family dishes, fattening dishes, slimming dishes – a full armoury for busy cooks.Happy Coooking.”

They’re the dishes enjoyed in homes all over Greece, from tiny islands to the mainland cities—foods for the stomach and for the soul, because meal times in Greece are rich with tradition. The Real Greek at Home is part cookbook, part cultural exploration. From the islands come simple dishes like rolled fresh sardines, roast feta with oregano, and spinach and yogurt salad. From the cities comes more sophisticated food, like chicken with young courgettes or lemon and dill bread. And from the sea, honest dishes like barbequed lobster with parsley spread and stewed squid with horta.
