Over 80 modern recipes inspired by the traditional cooking of Greece and Cyprus from popular chef and TV personality Theo Michaels.

Fresh ingredients sing from the plate, from juicy watermelon and glossy kalamata olives, to fragrant oregano-roasted lamb and delicate fish wrapped in vine leaves.

Presenting a feast for the eyes as well as the tastebuds, fresh and delicious recipes are organized into chapters entitled Meze, Sea, Land, Sun, Fire and Sundowners, evoking the Greek way of life.

Meze features mouth-watering small plates for sharing from creamy whipped dips to meatballs. The sea is woven into Greek culture and seafood is a staple; enjoy the freshest fish and shellfish cooked simply and served with a squeeze of lemon juice. Meat is a huge part of the Greek diet and cooking over charcoal is part of daily life. Ttraditions of 'horta' means there are plenty of vegetable dishes to enjoy. Finally, Greek desserts are often just a sweet note to savour with a bitter black coffee or come sundown you may prefer a Greek-inspired cocktail such as an Ouzo Sour. This is an updated and expanded new edition of Orexi! featuring 8 new recipes.
