This is my version of Halloumi Feta mint ravioli.

This is my version of Halloumi Feta mint ravioli. The photo was taken on my aunt’s old cloth; I can’t remember if the cloth has silk made from my grandma’s silk worms or not. The cloth (and the recipe) are both treasured in any event, and the recipe can be found in my cookbook.

Also - my friend Eleni of @myfamilysfooddiary has been organizing many of the Cypriot food bloggers every February for the past few years for #febulouscypriotfood - where we promote Cypriot food together around the world. This year she’s done even more of an insanely incredible job, and has also added a food competition taking place 1 February to 7 February. The winner of the food competition will win a copy of my cookbook and the competition is open worldwide. There are also 4 live cooking sessions with her - I’m making baklava with her at the end of February for anyone who wants to join! And here are the 3 other delicious live cooks taking part: @cuisinovia , @chrysolefou , @fooddiary_adl and @the_traditional_plate . All the details, dates are in the slides here. So I hope you will all check out the hashtag and will enjoy the recipes and FEBulous Cypriot fooD! PS I’m still in the thick of toddler raising, packing a house for March as we prepare to demolish it, and more so I’m trying to get back on here as much as I can in February between boxes and play-doh cookies. 🙈Much love. xx

It’s been ages since I last posted, I’m just e

It’s been ages since I last posted, I’m just emerging out of a long break. I wanted to start by saying a big thank you to @boulevard_magazine for this incredible feature in the Dec/Jan issue of Boulevard Magazine, and @blackpress.media.events for the related features. Thanks to @liacrowe for the (as always) amazing shots and company, @angelamcowan for the beautiful words and @jenclarkmua for making me look so pretty! ❤️ … I’m excited about 2022. Lots happening: we are tearing down the house to rebuild and we have been in the midst of selecting housing fixtures, tiles, and all other things with the incredible @marikushinodesign, working on some new writing too. Steve was away from November 1 until Christmas which was challenging to say the least (!) and we have just resumed our regular routine now. Which means a little more time for me in the kitchen (toddler depending 🙃) and to be posting and reconnecting. Much love to you all, hoping your year is off to a peaceful start. ✨❤️✨

In Andrew Zimmern’s Spilled Milk Substack series

In Andrew Zimmern’s Spilled Milk Substack series from today, @chefaz shares a very interesting article about Cyprus: its food, rocky political history and the importance of coming together through eating - and great restaurant reccomendations too. I highly recommend reading it, and generally subscribing to the series. I am so grateful that I had the chance to film with Andrew in Cyprus in 2016 - (I acted as tour guide and translator in the Bizarre Foods Cyprus episode). I was blown away with Andrew’s ability to describe flavours and tastes in such an accurate and interesting way, and his genuine interest in getting to really understand the food, culture, people and steps he took to ensure an authentic depiction of how the Cypriot foods showcased were actually made. His authenticity and way with words are two of the reasons I enjoy his Spilled Milk series so much (along with his Instagram Live recipe series). Needless to say, I’m over the moon that he not only mentioned my book “Cyprus Cuisine” in this article, but also was looking through it in order to make the pork afelia! I hope you enjoyed Andrew - a taste of Cyprus on your plate I hope. Many thanks again for the filming experience in ‘16 and continuing to shining a light on Cyprus, its food, people and culture.
