I grew up going to the Panegyri festival in Finneytown at Holy Trinity Church. Today I took a Greek Cooking class there with Colleen & Anne. This is where my love of Greek food began, so it was really special to connect with the people who make it happen behind the scene.
Vera layering - and fixing a lot - of the Dolmathes - vegetarian stuffed grape leaves - we all took part in assembling. It was interesting seeing how different everyone rolled them up and even funny to see Vera fixing so many. We were all chuckling over this. 
We also made Cheese filled Peppers - Piperyes - easy and delicous!
Here is a plate of cooked Meat filled Bourekakia. Again, look at how different they all are!
Vera demonstrated the flaming technique in making Saganaki cheese. This was rich and delicious! The ladies also did a demo of dessert, Halva - a light sponge cake, 3 different ways.
Colleen, Helen, me and Anne. Helen was one of the instuctor/helper ladies and she was at our table. These ladies were all so nice! We had a great morning!
