Never tried to make cheese pies back home......I usually eat so many on holiday that I sicken myself, and am glad to wait 'till my next trip to Corfu to have some more

I prefer the not so traditional, puff pastry ones to the filo variety

PS. Anyone know if you can buy the round pittas anywhere in the UK?

I make chees pie with the puff pastry...I prefer it to the filo because it's more light and because can't find it in shops here.....and I have no will to make it by myself......lol...

Tiz,

If I am visiting any country I always try local food. Why eat what you do at home.

It is not only Greek recipes that I have an interest in. Over the years I have built an interest in many cooking styles.

I may have retired, my wife still works, so it is the least that I can do is to give her a special meal when she gets home.

A new string to my bow is Saffron stamens bought in Tunisia for less than 6 euro for 50gm. Long live regional cooking.

Yammas,  Colin.

Oh, tyropitas!  I have been eating them for many decades.  I used to buy the filo dough and have my dad, who was a freak for detail work, do all the brushing with butter of each layer.  Yum!  Now, I am a lazy dolt and just buy them ready-made in the freezer dept. at the supermarket!  They also have spanakopita (spinach pies) and spanatyropitas (combo of cheese and spinach pies)!  (The latter, can't remember if that's the proper name.)

Someone asked if the U.K. has pita bread.  I am sure they do.  They have had pita bread here in the U.S. for a very long time.  It is available everywhere.

Plus, every day I drive 11 miles to work, I pass by the largest Greek importer west of the Mississippi River, C & K Importing Co., which carries EVERYTHING Greek one could ever wish.  I know the owner, Chris Chrys.  So if there's ever something hard to find, I just pop in there!

They were always called Spanakopites on Kefalonia but, whatever they are called, I can't stand them because I hate any type of cheese.
