    There’s a reason vegetarian dishes have such an important place in Greek cuisine. It was in Kalymnos that I first saw a Greek Orthodox calendar, which indicates “vegetarian” days & “fish” days ...etc. It was fascinating because until I saw the calendar, I thought that Lent was the only time of the year with dietary restrictions.

    Hi Dimitra. I absolutely love your channel and all of your dishes. You are such a great cook that I feel you should have many more subscribers nearing 100,000 and I hope that comes true for you. Thank you for your wonderful personality and mouthwatering dishes. Mediterranean food is my total favorite type of food and healthy to eat. Thank you for all the future wonderful recipes you are going to bring to your channel. You are so appreciated and you have a lovely family.

    Making this tonight along with green beans in a Greek style and something that will make a priest faint . A real Greek feast here tonight. How did I learn all those meals? For you. Good news in my town, I have now found a supplier who sell spinach in big bags at affordable prices, we have a Greek restaurant opening up in town and a new ethic food shop has opened up, selling Middle Eastern foods, and sells some ingredients used in Greek cooking. Hope you are well.

      Dimitra's Dishes
      I'm sure i will.It's nice to see that Greeks that left from Greece for a better life keep our food traditions alive wherever they go.Here the majority of the Greeks have almost forgot them and adopted a more western fast food lifestyle which is really bad.
      I have to admit that whoever taught you cooking did an excellent job.Give him my best. Your recipes are very accurate to they way my grandmother and mother are making it and sometimes i make them for my family when i have free time.
      I hope you get more subscribers and viewers so more people around the world start cooking our healthy delicious traditional cuisine.

    • @Floralie_

      ***** That is the reason why I started to learn how to cook Greek. My boyfriend has a Greek father but he rarely eats traditional food, and I find that so sad, since its soooo good! Traditions should be preserved no matter what! :) So we have a mixed up kitchen here in my home, Dutch/Greek. Kind of a funny combo.

    Hi Dimitra, greetings from Sydney Australia! Probably the most simplest and best spanokorizo version I've seen in a long time! I hate it when some people make it and it turns out a bit slushy & sloppy, but yours appears to have the perfect finish. The rice looks fluffy and perfect which is the way I like it. Well done! Can't wait to make it. Cheers!

    Thanks for the lovely recipe Dimitra! I recently heard about the benefits of the cuisines originating from the Mediterranean region so I'm going a little gung-ho about recipes like these. It's an additional bonus that it's vegetarian-friendly! Plus, you're the first non-Indian that I've heard pronounce 'Basmati' correctly!

    • @DimitrasDishes

    @manjan952 3 года назад +1

    I'm Pakistani by birth and my mom makes the spinach very similarly minus dill and red onion. And she cooks it with butter and does add little milk with cumin. The yummiest recipe. I am wondering if this is a Greek dish, how did it get to all the way Pakistan. We were colonized (aka oppressed) by the British but am curious how it got transmitted. Regardless, I love it and cook it often, too.
