Gigantes plaki from Smashing Plates: Greek Flavours Redefined by Maria Elia

Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Accompaniments: Slow-roasted paper-wrapped leg of lamb

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    This is super easy and delicious. Definitely try the recommendation for leftovers (on toast with feta, tomatoes, and mint).
