the story of cypriot cuisine

According to Greek myth, this eastern Mediterranean island was the birthplace of the goddess Aphrodite, and its natural blessings are numerous: a rugged coastline with sand or pebble beaches, rocky shores, sun-baked plains and forested mountains, and one of the best climates in the world. The Mediterranean diet is one of the healthiest in the world. As in neighbouring Greece, cooks make the most of locally available fresh ingredients: grains and pulses, fresh fruit, vegetables, herbs, lean meat, seafood and olive oil. But the island’s geographical position and history have shaped its cuisine further – through trade with the Middle East, British colonisation, French and Italian occupation, Turkish invasion in 1974, and the ongoing division between the Turkish Cypriot north and Greek Cypriot south. Expect to see local twists on traditional Greek and Turkish dishes, with tastes of Europe and the Middle East. The order of the day is hearty, fresh peasant dishes – well seasoned but not spicy – based on recipes handed down through the generations. Home cooking is an important feature of everyday life, and hospitality deeply ingrained in the Cypriot psyche. Thus an informal weekend meal with extended family and friends, at home or at a restaurant or taverna, might seem to involve a cast of thousands! Feasting – on religious days, birthdays, weddings and countless name days, just for starters – means eating, singing and joking, accompanied by wine and zivania, a strong spirit similar to vodka. In this kind of setting, the Cypriot preference for meze-style dining makes a lot of sense. A large selection of dishes – up to 30 – is brought to the table, with guests invited to take small helpings in a progression of tastes and textures. It’s the perfect introduction to Cypriot food as meze usually includes a few island specialties. An ancient tradition sees meat and vegetables roasted over coals in a fourno, or sealed oven – as in kleftiko (lamb slowly cooked with potatoes and lemon). But Cypriots have also mastered the barbecue, and favourite meat dishes include souvlakia (skewers of pork or lamb) and sheftalia (pork, lamb, onions and parsley wrapped in caul fat, barbecued and typically served in pita or flatbread with salad). Although Cyprus is an island, the area is not particularly rich in fish. Thus the seafood dishes on offer might tend towards octopus tenderised in red wine, cuttlefish rings or small deep-fried fish. For dessert, Cypriots enjoy fresh fruit but also specialise in very sweet cakes and pastries, favouring honey, fruits, nuts and pastry.


A word with its roots in antiquity, the word and usage came to Greece from Turkey. A meze is not a meal course like an appetizer (although meze dishes can be served as appetizers), but rather a dish, hot or cold, spicy or savory, often salty, that is served, alone or with other mezethes, as a separate eating experience.

meze

The purpose of the meze is two-fold: to complement and enhance the taste of the drink (wines, ouzo, zivania, etc.), and to provide the backdrop for a social gathering. Unlike appetizers (orektika in Greek) which are intended to whet the appetite for the meal to come, it is common for groups of family and friends to gather or go out for mezethes, share several of these delightful dishes, a drink, conversation, and laughter. The little plates are shared by everyone at the table, which not only provides a wonderful variety of flavor and texture sensations, but also creates the kind of happy, convivial (perhaps noisy) atmosphere for which Greeks are well known. There are many dishes traditionally served as mezethes, however there's a great deal of flexibility in what's included on the table – depending on personal preference. Greek restaurants often have a separate meze section of the menu, and dishes that might otherwise be served as an appetizer, a salad, or even a small portion of a main dish can be included. Mezethes are great choices for parties and buffet meals.


snacks, dips and spreads


tzantziki Cool and creamy, this tangy cucumber dip flavored with garlic is the perfect compliment to grilled meats and vegetables. It's served on the side with warm pita bread triangles for dipping, and is also used as a condiment for souvlaki. Prep Time: 20 minutes Total Time: 20 minutes Ingredients: 3 tbsp. olive oil 1 tbsp. vinegar 2 cloves garlic, minced finely ½ tsp. salt 1/4 tsp. white pepper 1 cup greek yogurt, strained 1 cup sour cream 2 cucumbers, peeled, seeded and diced 1 tsp. chopped fresh dill Preparation: Combine olive oil, vinegar, garlic, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Mix until well combined. Using a whisk, blend the yogurt with the sour cream. Add the olive oil mixture to the yogurt mixture and mix well. Finally, add the cucumber and chopped fresh dill. Chill for at least two hours before serving. Garnish with a sprig of fresh dill just before serving.


taramosalata The Greek meze would not be complete without this traditional spread.

Using a food processor or blender is probably the easiest way to prepare the spread. You can find carp roe caviar or tarama in jars at most Greek or Middle Eastern markets. Prep Time: 15 minutes Total Time: 15 minutes Yield: About 2 cups Ingredients: 8 slices of day old white bread, crusts removed 4 tbsp. Tarama (carp roe caviar) 2 tbsp. finely minced onion 3/4 cup olive oil 5 tbsp. fresh lemon juice Preparation: Remove crusts from bread and soak slices briefly in a bowl of water. Squeeze out excess water and set aside. Add tarama and onion to food processor or blender and mix for approximately a minute or until well blended. Tear the bread into pieces and add to processor or blender. Mix until combined. With machine running, slowly drizzle the olive oil into the mixture forming a paste. Add the lemon juice a bit at a time and blend until smooth and creamy. If you prefer it tangier, you can add more lemon juice. Serve taramosalata with pita triangles or other bread for dipping and enjoy with a glass of chilled ouzo!


avgolemono soup Chicken Soup Avgolemono is perhaps the most iconic of all Greek soups. Ingredients 2L (8 cups) chicken stock 50g (1/4 cup) long-grain white rice 2 eggs 60ml (1/4 cup) fresh lemon juice Salt & freshly ground black pepper 1 tbs finely chopped fresh mint 1 tbs finely chopped fresh continental parsley Lemon wedges, to serve Log in to add to My Shopping List Method Combine stock and rice in a saucepan over high heat. Bring to the boil. Cook, covered, for 15 minutes or until tender. Whisk the eggs in a heatproof bowl. Gradually whisk in lemon juice. Gradually whisk in a ladleful (about 125ml/1/2 cup) of stock mixture. Gradually add another ladleful of stock mixture, whisking constantly. Gradually whisk in half the remaining stock. Add the egg mixture to the remaining stock. Cook, stirring, over very low heat for 2-3 minutes or until soup thickens slightly (do not boil). Season with salt and pepper. Ladle soup among bowls and sprinkle with mint and parsley. Serve with lemon wedges.

desserts and puddings


galatopoureko Ingredients: 5 cups of whole milk 1 ½ cups + 4 tablespoons of granulated sugar 1 ½ cups of rice flour 2/3 cups of all-purpose flour 8 sheets of phyllo dough melted butter for brushing the phyllo dough 6 eggs ½ teaspoon of vanilla extract 4 tablespoons of butter 3/4 cup of almonds, blanched and crushed

Syrup: 3 cups of granulated sugar 2 cups of water 1 piece of lemon peel juice of ½ lemon

Preparation: Bring all ingredients to room temperature. In a mixing bowl, combine the flours and milk and stir until well mixed and smooth. Beat 4 of the eggs with 1 ½ cups of sugar and the vanilla, and add to the flour mixture, stirring until well blended. In a small saucepan, bring half the milk just to the boiling point. Add the hot milk very slowly to the flour mixture, stirring well. Pour the mixture into another saucepan and bring to a boil, stirring continuously until it thickens into a cream. Remove from the heat, and stir in the crushed almonds and butter until well blended. Set aside to cool. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly butter a 15 X 13-inch tapsi (baking pan with 2-inch sides), and line with phyllo sheets, brushing each one with butter. The sheets should cover the bottom and sides of the pan, and if they extend further, that's fine. Pour the custard onto the phyllo, then use a scissors to cut off any phyllo that still sticks out. Beat the remaining 2 eggs with 4 tablespoons of sugar and pour the mixture over the top of the custard. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 30-40 minutes. 15 minutes before cooking time is up, prepare the syrup. Bring all syrup ingredients to a gentle boil, and cook for 8 minutes. When the custard has finished baking, remove from the oven and pour the syrup over the custard, taking care that it reaches the sides so the phyllo gets well saturated.


pourekia

Ingredients: For the pastry: 500 gm plain flour 1 cup of water ½ cup of cooking oil Pinch of salt

For the filling: 500 gm of fresh unsalted Anari Cheese ½ cup of white sugar 1 cup of crushed almonds 1 teaspoon of cinnamon powder For Cooking: 3 cups of cooking oil For Dressing: Icing Sugar

Method: Place flour, salt and oil in a bowl and mix. Gradually mix in water, kneading until you have a nice soft dough. Cover and allow to stand for approx. 10 mins. To prepare the filling. In a large bowl mash the Anari Cheese and mix in the sugar, cinnamon and almonds. On a large clean surface sprinkle some flour and place the dough on top. You can cut dough into small pieces to make it easier to roll it into thin layers approx. 2mm thickness. The pastry should be rolled out as a circle as much as possible (roughly). From the middle of the circle (the diameter) and upwards place small dollops of the Anari mixture in horizontal rows keeping them at least 5cm apart. Take the bottom half of the pastry circle and fold over the upper part which has the anari dollops. Press gently around each Anari dollop with your hands to join the top and bottom pastry layers. Cut around the Anari dollops in squares or semi circle shapes, using a pastry rolling cutter. This should force the pastry layers to stick together and not open during frying. If you do not have a pastry cutter, you can cut with a normal knife but must then using the teeth on a fork to press all around the ‘pourekkia’ and stick the pastry together. Heat oil well in a large deep non stick pan. When oil is ready gently place the pourekkia into the pan. Watch and turn over as soon as golden making sure both sides are cooked evently. Remove ‘pourekkia’ and place on a dish lined with absorbing paper (kitchen paper is fine). Whilst hot sprinkle them generously with lots of icing sugar!
