These beef meatballs are common in the Middle East and they are really good J The amazing thing about them is that they have a filling made with ground beef! So they are meat keftas that have a filling of meat! Isn’t this unusual? It was actually a trigger for me to make the recipe! Moreover, they have pine nuts (an ingredient that I adore) and spices like allspice – or μπαχάρι for my Greek friends- as well as cumin and cinnamon! The dish has also the flavor of mint which gives some freshness, and it goes very well with everything else! Just try them and you will see!

This cute little sauce with a light taste of tahini was made to go along with the chick peas keftas of this edition but it can very well go with other fried food! In France, to make it, I use a fresh cheese that resembles a lot to the Greek yogurt we have in Greece and it’s made with sheep’s milk. For the English version of the recipe, I suggest that you use Greek yogurt because its texture (and taste if it’s made with sheep milk) is alike the French fromage blanc. The sauce has a light lemony taste as well, due to the lemon juice! It’s very good and quite delicate! If you like tahini very much, maybe you should try to add a bit more :-) It will be good :-)

These chick peas keftas are 100% vegan! and they are really good :-) They have a light mix of spices (cumin, paprika and turmeric) that gives them more flavor and go very well with spinach and onions! Furthermore, they are slightly fried and are made to be eaten with the tahini sauce for a vegetarian menu but not a vegan one! It’s up to you :-)

Keftas made only with eggs? Is this possible? (You must be wondering…) Well, everything it’s possible with the right recipe and this Greek recipe is very old (18th century) and very good! The keftas are very tasteful and delicate and are made with an egg cream (made with boiled eggs), onions, dried raisins, pine nuts and parsley :-) They are served with freshly grated nutmeg and they are very good and easy to make! Moreover, it’s wonderful to being able to make an old recipe that dates from the 18th century! Just give it a try :-)

A new category of recipes came to light these past three weeks! It’s about food coming from around the world and it contains recipes coming from other cultures (different from Greek and French) or that contain ingredients that come from other cultures! I realized that I love food coming from other cultures than mine and for that I created this new category to bring together all these recipes :-) I hope that you are going to like this new category :-)

A new home page is here! Its layout changed and it’s now somehow more dynamic and more easy to set up :-) but I also think that it’s a bit more modern (at least with current standards), using effects that are popular nowadays :-) But I must admit that the easiness to add content made me changing it :-) cu soon and please tell me what you think of this new design!
