CYPRadar 🇨🇾🍽️ Try These Classic Greek Summer Recipes: Tourlou, Strapatsada, and Halloumi Muffins
As the weather warms up, consider lighter Mediterranean dishes that bring summer flavors to your table. Tourlou, also known as Briam, is a traditional Greek baked vegetable tray featuring aubergines, courgettes, okra, peppers, potatoes, and tomatoes. The vegetables are fried first to caramelize before baking, enhancing the flavors. This dish is enjoyed throughout the Balkans with regional variations.
Another easy and rustic option is Strapatsada, a Greek scrambled eggs recipe cooked with fresh tomatoes, olive oil, herbs, and complemented by green olives and capers for a balanced, savory taste. It’s perfect for breakfast or a light lunch.
For a savory snack or picnic treat, try Halloumi and Olive Muffins made with flour, cheese, olives, fresh herbs, and spices. These muffins are enjoyed warm or at room temperature and can be adapted for gluten-free diets. These recipes and more are featured in Loulla’s book My Kosmos My Kitchen.
