Περιγραφή
One of the secrets of longevity in Ikaria is greens. The inhabitants of Ikaria love to consume anything their land produces, such as fruit, vegetables, legumes, potatoes and plenty of olive oil. Their great weakness is greens which, apart from being eaten boiled with plenty of oil, are used to make pies that are an integral part of their diet. Greens, as is well known, are rich in antioxidants, so it is not at all surprising that they contribute to longevity. They also prefer fresh fish, which they eat together with greens, consuming meat only about once a week, always with extra virgin olive oil.
Εκτέλεση
For the dough, put in a bowl the 2 tubs of 200 g all-purpose flour, 1 tub warm water (not hot), 1 espresso cup tsipouro, 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 teaspoon salt and knead well. Let the dough rest for 1 hour, covered with plastic wrap, together with 1 espresso cup tsipouro. For the filling, use plenty of greens and herbs, which you first sauté in olive oil for at least 15 minutes on a low heat so they don’t stick. We don’t want any liquid left inside, and for this reason you don’t add any water at all. Finely chop the 700 g of greens and add them with olive oil, salt and pepper, oregano, parsley and the orange pumpkin cubes. Roll out two sheets of dough after cutting the dough in half. Shape them like half-moons and like small rolls. You will need a little extra flour for rolling out the sheets. Fry each one in olive oil, about 5 minutes each time, turning on both sides.
