🇬🇷 Greece recipe
Kleftiko
Kleftiko, meaning 'stolen meat,' is a legendary Greek dish born from the mountain bandits who slow-cooked lamb in sealed underground pits to avoid detection. The lamb is marinated with garlic, lemon, and oregano, then sealed in parchment and roasted for hours until it is impossibly tender and infused with aromatic juices.
