One word: Yum! I've no feta on hand, but whipped this up anyway. I scaled it back to serve just me, and added nothing more than salt, freshly-ground pepper, and garlic to the sauce. I would say make certain to use good oil, though; while it's only 1/2 tablespoon per egg, you do get the flavor of it - - but in a good way. :) Thanks!

This recipe is similiar to one my Dad made for me as a kid...with the exception of the feta. My DH and I enjoyed it but there was just a little too much olive oil for our taste. Next time I make this I will use half as much, and perhaps add a little bit of chopped onions, and garnish with some fresh dill or basil. Thanks Evelyn for giving me a taste of the past.

OK, here goes. I live in Athens, Greece. I moved out here many, many years ago from Ottawa, Canada - so I am blessed in having two wonderful heritages!
I suffer from compulsive obsessive behaviour with regard to food and my psychiatrist thought it would be a good idea to find a 'society' where many have the same problem and try to find a cure.
So far, I've copied a couple of thousand recipes from this site and my psychiatrist has thrown the towel in and refuses to answer the phone when I call.
What did I do wrong?
Got 3 kids that keep me on the go - 10 and under at this point (2008) - I may not get round to updating this for a few years, so you'll have to do your own maths.
I teach English full-time and Greek Cookery part-time. I would like to make the cooking part of it full-time and the English Grammar part of it part-time.
That's all for now.
