Yummy Greek Food Recipes - An Introduction
Learn to cook yummy Greek Food Recipes like a Cypriot! The only reason we have decided to separate this section into Greek Food Recipes and Turkish Food Recipes to make it easier for you guys, our readers, who may be looking for certain dishes that they might think of as being either Greek or Turkish. In actual fact, almost every one of these recipes is commonly eaten by both Greek Cypriots and Turkish Cypriots alike. Although, when in Cyprus, it is very possible you may hear debates about which side invented certain dishes! All the recipes in both the Greek and Turkish sections are typical meals that Cypriots eat regularly at home, and the recipes we are giving you are family ones – the way our parents, grandparents and aunts and uncles cook them. Personal little touches may vary among Cypriot families, and if you talk to three different home-cooks about the same dish, you may get three slightly different recipes. Most Cyprus recipes are made without using strict measurements or recipe books, the methods are just passed down through generations. Therefore you don’t have to stick rigidly to the measurements my family have provided on these pages – if you feel that you want to add more or less of an ingredient, use your instinct and go for it! It’s what a Cypriot would do! So here are some personal, family Greek recipes for you to try yourself! Roll up your sleeves and we hope you have lots of fun trying them out!
