Chocolate Bougatsa

Bougatsa….you’ve come a long way! Most of you are familiar with Bougatsa with custard, cheese filling, spinach and cheese, meat filling and the most authentic being “sketi” with no filling and topped with sugar.

Around 10 years ago I was in Greece in Spring and stopped in at a shop to have a bougatsa and to my surprise, they one with chocolate. Croissants have various fillings…why not bougatsa I thought? I am glad I try it…while decadent – it was delicious. A chocolate lover’s dream!

Artichoke Moussaka

This vegetarian version of Moussaka uses artichokes as the “meat”. I’ve updated the recipe to make it easier to prepare without sacrificing any flavour.

Shrimp Phyllo Pies

Earlier this month I served these shrimp filled phyllo triangles at my monthly Greek Supper Club and they were a big hit!

The inspiration comes from the Portuguese shrimp turnovers (rissois) I enjoyed last year during my trip to Portugal. I thought the filling would work as a filling wrapped in phyllo and I added Old Bay Seasoning as an accent for the shrimp filling.

A touch of Portuguese, a little Greek and a taste of the American south combine to make a tasty appetizer. I bet you can’t eat just one!

Sticky Toffee Pudding

Years ago, I attended a Christmas party/dinner where the dessert was one of those sticky English puddings. I loved how moist and flavourful the pudding (cake) was and the caramel sauce was dreamy.

I’ve finally gotten around to making my own version and I also served it to guests at my last Supper Club that took place just a couple of days ago. This recipe hot!
