Pastitsio, a greek classic

This is my healthy take on a Greek classic, Pastitsio. Instead of a rich cheesy sauce, it’s topped with a much lighter blend of yoghurt, tahini and parmesan cheese. It can be made with lamb or beef mince.

Aussie Meat Pie

This Aussie Meat Pie is based on one my dear Nan and I used to make when I was a kid. She always used shortcrust for her pies (no fancy puff pastry in those days) so I’ve done the same here.
