    I’ve recently discovered Akis, my wife children and myself lived in Greece for 7 years, loved it, loved Greece and her food.
    Akis has inspired me to cook again, his recipes are fantastic,

    Akis my mum makes pita and I keep asking her to show me how to make the filo and she says 'oh no it's too hard' she's old now and she learnt in her village by my grandmother when she was young. I will do this recipe and show her I can do it 👍😁 (I'm from Australia but my parents are from Karditsa)

    This was delicious.....And for the dough 210ml water (from the recipe - not mentioned in the video)..
    Spinach is pretty expensive in Finland so I used a mixture of baby spinach, black beet (chard) and kale. Was extremely delicious, probably due to the herbs coming straight from our garden! thanks!

    I tried this pie at the airport in Heraklion Greece; I loved it so I searched it, found some others but then I remembered! Akis!
    so I searched again and I found it..it looks beautiful. .easily recreatable..can't wait to give it a go..yet another lasting memory brought into the present.
    I love food and cooking nearly as much as you do Akis..

    Akis, you make everything look so easy! You convince us to make the most complicated dishes. I made this today. I may have used too much spinach as I used deep frozen one ( 750 g ). So the pie was quite high and the rest of the olive oil poured out of the pan a little , but altogether it was delicious! And I found out that it's easier and quicker to get a presentable shape of the phyllo dough when you use your hands to spread it in the end. The phyllo dough was "perfection"! Thank you Akis for making us try out new things and successfully so!

      @@virtuallyme2518 What do you mean turkish? I have a ton of examples where non turkish people made recipes to please turkish local rulers around the ottoman empire...So what's turkish? Because even the local rulers where just Christians of byzantine culture that turned muslim.There is an account after the fall of constantinople where the Patriarch mentions that the Christians were converted to Islam with their own will(to get the privileges of the new ruler) in waves.Another account states that the anatolian turkish people were displeased with mehmet and his predecessor for the privileges they gave to local people of thrace macedonia Epirus and Thessaly for becoming muslims thus turkified...So let me ask you again, what is turkish other than a broken language that dates from some nomad conquerors without any national belief?
