Every table needs a delicious appetizer and we chose a pie that celebrates Spring and will surely be loved by your guests.

Greek Pita! [pie]

MATERIALS

• 1 kg zucchini, cut into thin slices
• 4 spring onions, cut into thin slices
• 80 ml olive oil
• salt
• freshly ground pepper
• 1⁄2 bunch dill chopped
• 400 gr. feta cheese crushed
• 1egg
• 1 pack of leaf [whichever you want] at room temperature

IMPLEMENTATION

We prepare the filling. Heat the olive oil in a deep pan and sauté the spring onions for 1-2 minutes until soften. Add the zucchini and sauté well. Add salt & pepper and stir until their liquids dry out, for about 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and let it cool. Add the dill, feta cheese and egg to the zucchini and mix to combine the ingredients into a thick filling.

Grease the pan, lay 3 leaves, oiling each one and spread the filling evenly over the entire surface. Cover with another 3 sheets, put oil to each one again. Fold the leaves at the edges and oil them as well.

Cut the pumpkin pie into pieces and bake it in a preheated oven at 180oC in the air for about 1 hour, until the leaf is golden and crispy.

For sure not even a single piece of pie will be a leftover...

We move on to the main meal! We could not choose a meal that is not reminiscent of tradition. So our suggestion is a delicious and easy baked lamb with potatoes.

MATERIALS

• 2 1⁄2 tbsp mustard
• 12 large potatoes
• Salt
• Mixed peppers
• Lemon pepper
• 2 lemons juice and zest
• 1 tbsp. dried oregano
• 2 clones. fresh thyme
• 2 clones. fresh rosemary
• 3 tbsp. mustard
• 2 whole cloves garlic
• 1fl. Water
• 3/4 cup olive oil

IMPLEMENTATION

For the potatoes

In a bowl, mix the olive oil, lemon, juice and zest, oregano, mustard, salt and pepper. Whisk them to get a creamy texture. Wash and chop the potatoes. Put them in the bowl with the liquid ingredients and mix well. Pour the potatoes into a deep pan and add the garlic cloves with the peel and the sprigs of thyme and rosemary.

For the lamb

Preheat the oven to 200 ° C on the heating elements. We can put the whole piece or cut the lamb into portions. Make incisions in the shoulder of the lamb and add plenty of salt and pepper and lemon pepper. Place the lamb on top of the potatoes and pour over the mixture that we spread on them too.

Finally, add the water to the pan. Cover the pan with greaseproof paper and aluminum foil and seal well. Bake for 1 hour at 200 ° C. Uncover the pan, lower the heat to 180 ° C and continue cooking for about 1 hour or so, until the meat is fully cooked and browned.

You will all lick your fingers!

And for the end? The easiest, most delicious truffles you have ever tasted!

MATERIALS

• 150 gr. couverture
• 3 tbsp. honey
• 1 tbsp. butter
• 150 gr. easter cookies
• 100 gr. raw almonds
• 50 gr. cocoa

IMPLEMENTATION

Finely chop the couverture and transfer it to a bowl. Add the honey, the butter, and place it on a baking sheet, for 2 minutes until the couverture melts and we have a uniform mixture. Put the cookies and the almonds in the food processor, beat until they are completely crushed and add them to the bowl with the couverture. Mix with a spatula until you have a uniform mixture. 

Cover the bowl with cling film and transfer it to the refrigerator for 2 hours until the mixture is firm. Remove from the fridge and shape into balls of 20 gr. about each. 

Spread the cocoa on a plate and roll the truffles until completely covered.
