Kalitsounia is a quite labor-intensive dish similar to the dumplings. Like them, they can contain various types of filling, both in the salty and sweet versions. However, in contrast to the calitsounia dumplings, they are deeply fried in deep oil or baked in the oven.
A version with cheese and honey for the first time we ate in a secluded tavern on the Nida Plateau. Already at the time of frying this dish promised to be promising, but their taste was really delicious and exceeded our expectations. So we asked the Greek woman who prepared it for the preparation details. The combination of cheese, mint, honey and cinnamon is so unearthly that for a moment you can forget about how much caloric this dish is.
It is best to fry Kalitsounia quite briefly in deep oil, so that the dough turns golden. Long frying in our opinion causes that they become too hard. The original recipe requires unsalted myzithra cheese, but unfortunately in Poland you may have problems buying it. As a replacement you can use Italian ricotta.
More than 40 calories can be prepared from the proportions of the dough given in the recipe. Of course, however, it all depends on how much you roll out the dough and how big the pieces will be cut. Part of the portion can be left to fry the other day. Kalitsounia will not lose their quality.
1. In the bowl, prepare the filling: thoroughly mix the cheese, chopped fresh mint, ground cinnamon and sugar.
2. Preparation of the dough begins with the mixing of oil, eggs and milk. Then gradually add the flour and salt, and then make it so that a smooth and elastic dough is formed.
3. Divide the dough into several parts, each thinly rolled out. Using a mold or a fairly wide glass, cut the circles, and put the unused sections to re-roll.
4. For each piece of cake, put a small spoon of stuffing. Do not overdo it with its quantity, because during the frying dumplings can open. The stuck edges of the dough can still be formed into characteristic cloves with a fork, while we used a ravioli to which we simply cut the edges.
5. Fry the kalistounia gradually in a deeply hot oil. In our opinion, it is enough to fry them until the cake becomes golden. After frying, drain them on paper towels with excess oil and put on plates. Pour the dish over with honey and sprinkle with ground cinnamon.
Καλή όρεξη!
Feta from the oven is a great way for a quick and very tasty dish that will appeal to fry-eaters and lovers of Greek cuisine. The absolute condition of success is the use of the original Greek fete and not the Polish substitute, which has nothing to do with real feta. As with other dishes, there are several ways to prepare feta from the oven. If the dish is to fulfill the task of a snack, we only need one feta packet for 2 people.
The Greek cuisine shows that the broad bean which is also known in our country does not have to be just a seasonal ingredient. In the dried form, which is practically unavailable in our stores, it is a component of interesting dishes. Today, we offer you one of them, i.e. a paste of dried bean.
The popular feta or mizithra are found not only in salty but also in sweet dishes. For example, let the feta, described here, baked in filo with honey and sesame. It is a quick and very simple snack.

To polecamy :) W tawernie na płaskowyżu Nida są w mistrzowskim wydaniu. Tylko nie szukaj ich tam pod nazwą Kalitsounia, tylko pie with cheese and honey (czy jakoś tak).

Czy jedliście je może w tej tawernie: Kivernitis Taverna?
Byłam tam z mężem i córka 2 lata temu i nie mogę zapomnieć tych pierozkow. I co jakiś czas myślę żeby je odtworzyć. Pamiętam, że właścicielka mówiła, że jej pierożki były właśnie z mięta. Przepyszne
Nie, to była tawerna wysoko w górach, przy płaskowyżu Nida. Były niesamowicie pyszne :)
