I am often anxious that so called “traditional” recipes I present here might be adulterated or even completely false. Not this time. This time I know I am presenting a genuine Greek recipe straight from Katerina’s “Culinary Flavours<\/a>“. I don’t know much about Greek cuisine, so my eyes are always wide open while discovering Katerina’s delightful treats. My discovery of the culinary heritage of this part of Europe is somehow slow and shy, but bouyourdi has triggered my curiosity as an easy, but completely new way to serve feta (until then used only on salads). Moreover, baked tomatoes, feta, onion and peppers had to be a no-risk, winning combination. I instantly knew I would love it (not only because Katerina suggested enjoying it with a glass of my beloved ouzo).<\/p>\n Having baked several bouyourdi batches, I cannot imagine getting tired of it. Its simple but perfect mixture of flavours seems addictive. You can serve it as an appetiser (or “mez\u00e9” to repeat Katerina’s words), but I also loved it as a light lunch. Actually, I wouldn’t mind having bouyourdi at any time of the day, especially since it’s so easy and quick to prepare. A perfect lazy summer meal or snack.\u00a0Thank you so much, Katerina, for this wonderful dish, which has already become a staple in my house.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n I have followed Katerina’s instructions, only downsizing the ingredients to a dish for one. I have used a small individual baking dish (9 x 13 cm).
