Looking for a tasty spread to impress your family and friends this Easter weekend? We have put together a collection of our tried and tested Greek-inspired recipes to create the ultimate Easter spread.
You can be the ‘hostess with the mostes’ and cook the full spread, pick a few recipes or share the load and ask your guests to each cook a recipe for an easter potluck! We recommend serving this spread alongside some flatbreads or pita bread. We hope you and your guests enjoy these recipes as much as we do!
Zesty, Garlic Slow Cooked Lamb
This lamb shoulder is slow-roasted in the oven with tons of lemon, garlic and oregano – it’s so easy and soo tasty! The lemon juice and zest perfectly cuts through the richness of the lamb – if you’re vegetarian we recommend swapping out the lamb for pan-fried honey and thyme halloumi.
Roasted Eggplant with Miso, Tahini Sauce and Pomegranate
Make the most of the last of the eggplant season and serve up this Roasted Eggplant with Miso, Tahini Sauce and Pomegranate. The sauce can be prepared a couple of days ahead, just bring it to room temperature before serving.
If you don’t like eggplant, simply swap for orange roasted sweet potato.
Crispy Potatoes with Harissa Yoghurt
A spread wouldn’t be complete without some crispy roasted potatoes, right? We’ve taken them to the next level by serving them on a bed of harissa yoghurt (also great with the lamb).
Greek Inspired Salad
The perfect way to utilise all the produce summer has to offer. We like to finely dice all the veggies, ensuring each mouthful gets a bit of everything!
It’s easy to prepare and can be made a couple of hours before.
Roasted Cauliflower with Tzatziki, Feta and Pine nuts
We’ve paired golden, crispy roasted cauliflower with homemade tzatziki, feta and pine nuts for a simple but delicious veggie side dish.
