It’s 3am and I’m absolutely totally stuffed with Greek cooking. With Mirela’s Dad visiting for the week it was a prime opportunity for him to display his cooking skills. He had actually already cooked for us earlier in this week (chicken noodle soup) but tonight he pulled out a couple of specialties including Melitzanes Imam which is eggplant stuffed with peppers, tomatoes and onions and Giuvetsi, a kind of rice casserole (pictured to the left on our plates.)

Due to the limitations of our kitchens (basically between Mirela and I we have one microwave oven and a couple of ring burners on the stove top) much improvisation had to be made tonight! Still it was a giant success apart from getting a bit hungry waiting to eat! (we had to wait for Enrique to arrive from Birmingham) All dishes were simply delicious.
