Horta me fava is a simple Cretan dish of boiled greens and legumes dressed with olive oil and lemon. It's mild, earthy, and satisfying without being heavy. It's eaten as a light afternoon meal or side dish, often with bread. #greek #cretan #mediterranean #vegetables #legumes #light meal
A Cretan beef stew braised slowly with blackeye peas and navy beans until the meat falls apart and the broth turns deep and savory. Ginger and vinegar cut through the richness and keep the dish from feeling heavy. It's the kind of one-pot meal eaten on cool days, with good olive oil and bread on the side. #greek #beef stew #legumes #mediterranean #cretan cuisine #one pot
This is a Cretan one-pot stew of chicken, pink beans, black-eyed peas, green beans, and cabbage cooked down in a tomato and oregano sauce. It's filling and gently flavoured, the kind of dish that uses whatever the garden and pantry have on offer. It's eaten as a main meal, and improves the next day once the flavours have had time to settle. #cretan #mediterranean #chicken #legumes #one-pot #weeknight dinner
