Santorini Tomato Patties

Santorini tomato patties are the island’s most famous and delicious traditional dish.
Red Mullet in Caper Sauce (Barbounia me Saltsa Kapari)

Red mullet is arguably one of the Aegean’s most characteristic fish. Typically, it is pan-fried. This island dish, however, calls for cooking it in tomato and caper sauce, the latter a mainstay in the culinary heritage of many arid Cycladic islands. This recipe originally appeared in my book, Aegean Cuisine (KETA publishers).
