    Greek food is easily my favourite, but I tend to overlook dishes like this in favour of the insanely delicious meat dishes. but after over-indulging on some very naughty french toast this morning, I thought I should maybe make something a little healthier for dinner today. I came across this video, and just had to try it, as I adore spinach and Akis really makes it seem like your life isn't complete unless you've tried it.
    And it was delicious!
    I then found my way to the website and have found about 100 more things I can't wait to try!
    Thank you Akis! I was in a cooking rut, and you've triggered my enthusiasm again. Now if you'll excuse me, I have a date with some Baklava! ;)

    An ex-girlfriend (Greek) made a more simplified version of Spanakorizo. She didn't use the Dill or the stock, or the wine. Water was used in place of the stock. And she typically added cheese to it; whatever we had on hand, but her preference was Feta. It was one of my favorite dishes!

      ​@@65NARTI'd have to disagree. Though it doesn't have that extra flavour to it, it's still good and has that classic warm dish made by your mom or grandma feeling. After all it is supposed to be simple and easy.
      My mom's not a fan of dill so she does her own version. I've tried many variations of the dish and I can say that they're all unique and good. None of them lacked flavour. (Essentially it all depends on personal taste. But the simplified version mentioned above is still very good, it doesn't feel lacking.)
