Thanks so much for the inspiration! I just made a vegetarian version of this recipe using a combo of lentils and yellow split peas instead of beef. Turned out amazing!
Bravo ! C'est une des meilleures choses que j'aie mangée en Grèce ! Mais je suis étonnée car je croyais que la cuisson se faisait dans un four. Merci pour la recette ! Merci du Sud de la France
Lovely takes me back to my childhood when my Yiayia used to cook these, woohooo thank you for posting your recipe cant wait to make is, Adios for now.......
I actually had this dish in Turkey and stumbled upon this video while searching for the recipe on RU-vid it’s very delicious melts in the mouth and the mild sting of the lemon in the sauce is just heavenly 😍😍I’ll be making this tomorrow thank you akis and you have a new fan
@stelkizi pastichio is a greek oven dish with minced meat, thick sized spaghetti, and bechamel sauce on top. But the dish is baked in the oven and the bechamel on the top becomes soft solid. its very very tasty.

Geia sou!!! I am new here. I come to looking a Halva recipe and found you channel. Now you have a new brazilian fan. My question is: when I lived there in Greece, and when I was going to eat stick souvlaki this come with lemon sauce. The best I have ate. This video here is the same lemon sauce in all Greece??? Exist another way to make lemon sauce? Filakia pola
There are two lemon sauces. The egg-lemon sauce and the lemon-oil sauce. akispetretzikis.com/en/recipe/4948/ladolemono The second one we use it with fish too!
Αυγολέμονο χωρίς αυγά! Bechamel sauce with lemon is an excellent replacement! :-) I'd also substitute the meat with mushrooms and chickpeas - for complete protein - although, that's not how the dish is prepared traditionally. I'm trying to veganise your recipes. I hope you don't mind :-)
I have a question: if your intent is to steam the zucchini, why don't you have an grate-type insert in the pot to raise them above the water and the bottom of the pot?
Hello Akis, have you ever heard of stuffed eggplant with egg lemon sauce? My mother made it and I can’t remember how. Please, from one Greek to another, help! Lol
LOvely! some *questions* : is it better to bake the zucchinis for more flavour or it doesn´t make a difference? the besciamel sauce is tastier with milk or chicken stock ? which wine you use? which other spices will you recommend? thanks Akis! :)
Το εφτιαξα και ηταν τελειο! Να σε ρωτησω ομως: γιατι να μη βαλεις στη σαλτσα το νερο στο οποιο μαγειρευτηκαν τα κολοκυθακια; κατα τα αλλα, πολυ ωραια εναλλακτικη του κλασικου αυγολεμονου!☺
avgolemono sauce is made with eggs and lemons, correct. This is not avgolemono, its a type of lemon bechamel. This dish is traditionally made with avgolemono so you are not mistaken :)
