This is one of the most popular dishes you can find in Greece. Moussaka comprises of layers of aubergine, minced potatoes, and meat and then topped with a creamy béchamel sauce, baked until it is golden brown. You can get the vegetarian version in some restaurants.

These are eaten as sidings of a main meal, they are grape or vine leaves usually stuffed with lemony, herby rice and then folded over to form a parcel; followed by steaming. Some are filled with vegetables or meat.

  • Spanakopita

Greeks love pies so much, and that’s why you’ll find varieties of them in Greece, starting from those made with dough down to those made from flaky filo pastry and then stuffed with meat, cheese, greens or anything from aubergines.
