Yassou Aki. The problem with your videos is that when I watch them I "drool" and I get dangerously hungry. I just got me some peppers to do "Gemista". Every year, in March, when the peppers are in season here in New Zealand, I cook batches of "Gemista" and freeze them individually. I eat them throughout the year when I can't be bothered to cook. Today, I'll try to cook them your way. Efxaristo re manga.

[@furiouz7511]

Akis you're the man for real! Im half greek and cooking your food gives me back all the good feelings and reminds me of how my grandmother always cooked for me. Much love from germany!

I LOVE GREEK CUISINE

[@akispetretzikisen]

My lovely Gemista!

[@Garapetsa]

good recipe.. here's a tip.. instead of adding water at the end.. use V8 juice.. just a little can. It makes a great juice to pour over the pepper.

[@cc2752]

H Pn what is V8 juice ?

[@TheItsmegp46]

Chritos Christodoulou It is a canned raw juice consisting of 8 types of vegetables. You will find it on Google.

[@TheItsmegp46]

Love Gemistes, like you said especially when tomatoes are in season. My mother taught me to prepare them. One small difference, after stuffing the veggies, she sprinkles about a half teaspoon of grated Kefalotiri on the stuffing mix. Also, save some room in your baking pan for slices of zucchini squash.

[@Garapetsa]

Christos Christodoulou it is vegetable juice. You can use tomato juice too..

[@originalmix2546]

I only watch this because I adore Greek accent. It's so funny and cute and well, some Food and some hottie only adds to this overall guilty pleasure:) Jasu !

[@saulle2u]

I just tried this and it worked! Taste great too! Thanks Aki... all the way from Malaysia.

[@jerrypollatos7935]

Alkis, made this recipe last night and it was fantastic!! The whole family loved it. It was my first time making stuffed peppers and tomatoes and it was great! Your the man!! Yiasou from your fellow Greeks from Virginia, USA. Love your channel!!

[@mamamama5216]

[@chrismalkon2358]

Nice work Akis

[@ninadiamant8937]

It can't get more traditional than this. Tasty as hell!

[@nihalsalah5943]

In Egypt we stuff veggies with rice only most of the time but sometimes we add ground beef like this recipe, famous stuffed veggies in Egypt are small eggplant, zucchini, grape leaves and cabbage

[@Chewie373]

One of the best meals I ate on a trip to Greece for my honeymoon was stuffed vegetables . As Akis would say "AMAZNG !"

[@E6Grimmjow]

I just made this and it’s so delicious, I’ve used a pack of herbs special for this recipe from Greece, I had a very good time there, I’d come back anytime, lovely country with amazing people and fantastic food 🤤🏛🇬🇷

[@WillyPresto]

Hi Akis! My son loves your channel and especially this recipe! We enjoy it exactly as you have instructed. We eat it once a week and we've now incorporated it για σαρακοστή Ευχαριστώ και Να σαι καλά

[@akispetretzikisen]

❤

[@LalAdri]

Can I see the floor behind him...where he’s throwing the insides of the peppers lol

[@starrynight6223]

Hi Akis! It looks delicious! I already cooked two of your recipes (Moussaka and filled aubergines ) and both looked and tasted great!

[@sofhar7162]

I ❤️Greek stuffed Bell peppers with mashed Potatoes or sliced baked lemon Potatoes as a side dish ..Feta ,Olives & fresh baked Bread …OMG …I’m hungry!🤤😋🫠

[@iPhonix07]

When I was in crete last year I absolutely loved the papoutzaki (if that is how you spell it)! That thing was amazing!

[@richardyuman]

I had those in crete. I bought the spice you use for rice. Love it! Wonderful people, delicious food, amazing veggies. You are killing me man.

[@ap2324]

Yummy...sooooo good! Best Greek Chef on the planet!

[@lilyhannshanns3484]

Wonderful food Akis Thank you so much.😋😋

[@sophsterm]

[@peterkrissilas6988]

Aki thank you from Ottawa Canada my family loves you the stuffed peppers recipe turned out to be AMAZING .

[@kathyvp]

Akis, this recipe brought me back to when I was little, my grandmother and I use to make stuff tomatoes all the time, it was a little different than your recipe, but very very tasty as well. Thank you for sharing this wonderful video with us, which brought me back to many beautiful childhood memories, which it seem I had forgotten all about. God bless!!!! 😊👍

[@pennyk1943]

This how my mom and grandmom prepared “paragemista”. Thank you for using English in this video so I can direct my kids to make this themselves👍🥰😉

[@deliaaludeini9080]

Hello dear Akis.i made this dish...no words to explain.rainbow like i use to say on the mouth. Bravo!and thnks sharring us your recipe!The Best food în the world greek .

[@rccosplay3249]

Gemista! I love eating the stuffed peppers, onions and tomatoes... 💖

[@SophieLovesSunsets]

Great recipe Akis! Gemista is one of the most beautifully flavoured dishes I have ever tried. One of my favourite Greek dishes for sure, but to be honest, I've never had bad Greek food :) It's a healthy meal too just like you said Akis. Good fat from Greek olive oil (the secret of life) and protein from the meat. Mediterranean cuisine at it's very best 😎😎😎

[@user-iw2md2gl4q]

This looks amazing. Will definitely try it. Thank you!

[@joyceackaouy3544]

Akis, i feel hungry every time I see your recipes! Waw!

[@jasonbean7296]

[@user-iq9ih1cn4y]

Brother - PATRITHA!!!!!! I have watched you cook this dish 3 maybe 4 different ways in Greek and in English. I really appreciate that you take the time to do it in two languages and in seperate videos BUT, BUT, can you please be consistent with your technique and your recipes. Love Ya but let's get balanced so the non-Greek audience can prepare it the same way we do "Sto spiti mas" Thx

[@silvavb]

👌👌 delicious recipes 🤗🤗

[@willidirks]

Very delicious!

[@lelsqueks]

[@alfaomega7934]

[@joyfpontanar]

Just made these today. Absolutely delicious! Halved the recipe to make two batches: one with beef mince and one with Quorn chicken pieces. My family and I ate them all up. So reminded us of our first Greek stuffed peppers experience in a restaurant in Fira, Santorini (Thank you, restaurant I can’t remember the name for). Thank you for sharing this recipe!

I always add tomato sauce along with the water in the bottom of the pan. Also, I add an egg to the rice and meat mixture to hold it together.
