Dolmadakia with Yogurt Sauce
Delicious dolmadakia with lots of herbs and a wonderful yogurt sauce from Argiro Barbarigou.
A few more secrets
If you like, add 2 tablespoons of pine nuts and 2 tablespoons of raisins to the filling. The lemon and tomato not only add flavor but also keep the rice fluffy. Slow cooking for perfect results!! I also make them in the oven, in an oiled Pyrex dish lined with leaves, place the dolmadakia on top, cover again with leaves, cover with hot water, then with aluminum foil, and bake at 375°F (190°C) for 1 hour.

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Soak the rice in a bowl of water for 1 hour. Then place it in a strainer and rinse under running water, drain well. Squeeze 1 lemon over the rice and mix.

Heat half of the oil and sauté the onions with the green onions over low heat for 3-4 minutes. Add the rice and mix well, add 2 cups of water and simmer for 6-7 minutes until the rice absorbs the liquid, season with salt and pepper, and sprinkle with the herbs.
- 4
Grate the tomato into the rice filling and mix well. Blanch the grape leaves for a few minutes and place them in a bowl of cold water. Drain them. Remove the thick veins at the edge of the grape leaf.

Take a grape leaf in your palm, with the veins facing up, place a spoonful of filling, fold the two sides, and then roll the dolmadaki into a roll.
- 7
Line the bottom of the pot with grape leaves [I used sliced potatoes]. Place them in rows in the pot, seam side down, close together. Drizzle with the remaining oil, cover with a plate to prevent them from unrolling during cooking. Pour in water just to cover them, simmer the dolmadakia until the water is absorbed and they are almost left with just the oil, about 40 minutes.

Place all the ingredients in a bowl and whisk with a whisk or fork for a few minutes to make a smooth sauce. Pour over the dolmadakia and serve.

Chilled Spaghetti with Basil Sauce and Yogurt Chilled Spaghetti with Basil Sauce and Yogurt
Basil sauce itself doesn't blend well with the pasta, but I didn't want to add so much oil.That's why I experimented with mixing in yogurt. It surprisingly added a rich flavor to the sauce and it was quite tasty.This dish is also great as a side dish for a richer main dish!Please leave out the lemon juice if you're not a fan of tart food.Taste the basil sauce beforehand and adjust the amount of salt and pepper for the seasoning.Squeeze with a cloth or paper towel and drain it well. For 1 serving. Recipe by Nanamama

Summery Yogurt Sauce Summery Yogurt Sauce
My family loves all dairy products. This is a secret recipe of mine that has no oil, eggs, or cheese yet is creamy and tastes sweet and garlicky.This may seem like a lot, but we make 1 liter of this batch. Try it over warmed vegetable salads, steamed dishes, toss with pasta, add to shabu-shabu sesame sauce, use as a dipping sauce for fried foods or chicken karaage, spread on toast, or use this instead instead of mayonnaise in potato salads.

I've had nicer stuffed peppers, but this is still pretty yummy. I like an extra kick so I add chilli, but it really doesn't need it. Peppers can be reheated but are better eaten fresh.
