Kitchen Chaos in Greece (With a Happy Ending!) | #smallyoutuber #greekcooking
Welcome to my kitchen! Today’s video is what I like to call a comedy of errors. I set out to make the Greek dish Gigantes — but let’s just say, things didn’t exactly go as planned! From forgetting to cook the beans to recording an entire video with no sound, this was one adventure after another. Still, I learned, I laughed, and I finally got it right. Join me as I share my favorite Greek cooking tips, bloopers, and my not-so-traditional secret ingredient!!! Here's my recipe for Greek Gigantes: Preheat oven to 180°C or 325°F 250 g large white beans Water to cover One onion, chopped Three clove garlic pressed Two small carrots, chopped Three sweet red peppers, chopped One cube KNORR, chicken or vegetable flavor 3 to 4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil oil 250 g crushed tomatoes Grated Parmesan cheese to taste 1. Soak the beans overnight. 2. Drain and rinse the beans. 3. Place the beans in a sauce, pan and cover with water. Slowly simmer until beans have softened. This takes at least one hour. 4. While beans are simmering, gently sauté your ingredients, one at a time, adding your knorr cube, with a bit of water to glaze the pan. 5. Simmer your sauce for about 5 to 7 minutes. You can now add whatever herbs you like I add oregano, thyme, and Bayleaf. 6. When beans have softened transfer the beans to the sautéed vegetables and mix well. 7. Lastly, layer your beans, and Parmesan, if you are using, into a Pyrex baking dish. Cover and place in A preheated oven for one and a quarter hours. 8. Check that the beans have cooked and are soft, remove the lid and cook in your oven for another 15 minutes till cheese is nicely brown.
