Kleftiko
Kleftiko is a traditional Greek dish, particularly popular in the region of Milos. It consists of slow-cooked lamb, marinated with herbs and spices, and typically cooked in a sealed pot or wrapped in parchment paper. This method allows the meat to become tender and infused with flavors, often accompanied by potatoes and vegetables.
The name "Kleftiko" translates to "stolen," referring to the historical practice of bandits cooking their stolen sheep in hidden locations. Today, it is enjoyed by locals and tourists alike, often served in tavernas across Greece, showcasing the rich culinary heritage of the country.
