Περιγραφή
Χάχλες are the traditional trahanas of Lesvos, made with sour milk and shaped like a “handful.” They are prepared with milk and wheat and shaped by hand. They took their name from their shape, as they resemble flat, oval, small saucers for coffee cups. They are usually filled with feta and served either lightly baked in the fireplace or in the oven, or broken into pieces and added to soups to make them more filling. The most famous χάχλες are those of Mesotopos in western Lesvos.
Εκτέλεση
Start by preheating the oven to 200°C. In a large bowl, put all the filling ingredients. Divide the mixture among the χάχλες and place them in a medium baking tray lined with baking paper. Bake for 8–10 minutes, until the χάχλες are lightly golden and the filling is cooked. Remove from the oven, drizzle the χάχλες with a little olive oil, sprinkle with oregano leaves and serve. Ideally accompanied by ouzo.
