Listening to Akis speak about food is like therapy.

[@kathyvance8913]

Thank you Akis Greek from Florida loves your recipes. God bless.

[@sleepychanel2253]

I’m Greek and my dad would always make me and my sister this with some type of potatoes or fries, feta cheese and bread when we would stay at his house. So good 🤤

[@echdareez]

Same here! Also Greek (but not born/living in Greece) but my mum also made this. So yummy, especially with potatoes! Mmmm! So yeah, this is a classic recipe ;-)

[@tritzispoosa]

You never disappoint. You are one of the best chefs on you tube. Honestly. God bless u 🇨🇦

[@johnkatsoudas4767]

I am making this tonight. I remember when I went to Greece with my mom in 1988 as a little kid, my favorite dish was Bifteki with patatoules! I ate it at least three times a week at my mom's village Asimohori. I have so many amazing memories. Efaristo para poli for this recipe! Na isay kala.

[@akispetretzikisen]

❤️

[@tritzispoosa]

You never disappoint. Great instruction. I only wish I could taste the food. You know if 100 people make the same recipe it would taste different 100 times There is something in us that makes good food. One ingredient for success in any recipe is our LOVE. 🇨🇦

[@zaxlee01]

In Greece growing up, we had this once a week. Not the best greek dish, but it is a comfort dish that nobody says no to.

[@yradierruizmalave737]

Akis! I just tried this recipe... And I tell you, it's amazing! I'll make it a burger... A Greek burguer... And, in your honor, I'll name it Akis Biftekia burguer! Thank you for teaching me (us) so much about Greek cuisine! Un abrazo desde Venezuela!!!

[@akispetretzikisen]

Thank u! ❤️

[@sipzter]

"And probably, I will need some feta, also."......... Feta goes with everything from fried eggs to salads to biftekia. Yassou Akis. I made this recipt and it was delicious. Efgharisto para poli!

[@구구이-x2p]

This recipe is so Greek that I feel like I became Greek after just watching this video!

When I return after 2 weeks in Greece I'm going to be unbearable😂 All the recipes gathered...

[@1sostatic]

I just made this today ... and I do use my extra Greek olive oil 🌞 it brought some Greek sunshine to our UK house. 🍋🍷 reminded us of our Holidays in Paphos. ...I even had some Cypriot red wine left to have with it. Akis - you're a King on youtube. 🤴

[@johnmitilias3063]

He’s a young male Yia-Yia. I love his approach.😊😊

[@laral8668]

Looks so delicious, love Greece 🇬🇷 and Greek cuisine it’s the best and people are amazing . ❤️ 🇬🇷

[@joeyk5]

Oh my, I’m making this tonight it was what I was searching for and you delivered Akis, I just knew you would have what I needed.

[@georgbarth114]

I love your cooking videos since many years.I hope sometime it is able to buy your cooking books in german language. i am from Austria and a big fan .

[@JimmyKarydis]

Bravo Aki, you have captured my childhood in this recipe. Looks delicious, can’t wait to try this.

[@lu9464]

[@chriscaragiannis6783]

Παντα ωραιος! Να σας ζησει το νεογεννητο!

[@BeaMantari]

I made this recipe today and it was so tasty 👌 The potatoes were soft and lemony and the meatballs nice and soft. Had it with feta and cucumbersalad on the side. Really nice!

[@colinconnors9147]

This looks like a brilliant recipe. I will be making this for my Family this Sunday. Damn I swear I can smell it from here. Thank you!

[@barbaratsolomitis]

I lived on biftekia while I was in Greece last summer!! I'm so excited to make these this weekend!

[@nighthawk0321]

I'd never even thought about using the oven! My family always cooked them in the pan, I'm going to give your version a try cause it looks great and much easier! Thank you Akis

[@mlersk8830]

I also love that he specifies Greek extra virgin - it really is the absolute best. I swear if you close your eyes you can taste thousands of years of history and the magic of the ancients in it. It’s incredible.

[@kloves3lvandcckelli315]

Love this so much!! My mommy made this often ☺️I’m going to make it to remember her🙏🏻💓 thank you Akis

[@jelenapavlovic7567]

I have just made this, it is DELICIOUS! My husband is Greek and he adores it!! Thank you, we love your recipes and you are really very spontaneous and very detailed in explaining.

[@SophiaCypria]

Much better and healthier way of cooking Burgers and Chips I always cook my Burgers in the oven Bravo Akis Numero Uno #1 King of the Greek Chef 's of Greece greetings from UK xox. 🥰

[@laraigneeauplafondofficiel]

Love you & love your mum too ! Thanx for this lovely journey to Greece 😍

[@nadiamaryam5229]

The happiness one feels after your mince is perfectly seasoned and all the ingredients required are chopped and added.....the mixing is juuuuusssttt satisfying 😍😍

[@andreashuber4593]

Thanks for the "milk-secret". Didn't know that. I'll try. Greetings from Bavaria!

[@jeanettelow1181]

Thank you for such a classic Greek recipe! My son will love it ... all his fave ingredients.

[@barbarawilliams3744]

Love, love, love Akis and your cooking. You are my go to chef for Greek food and I always use your tzatziki recipe 😊

[@stdpm]

A bread & milk panade is a must for good American meatloaf. This looks like a great recipe; I'm going to do it at home.

[@gregjohnson6329]

Just found this. Spent lots of time in Athens and Nafplio. Ate this all the time and fell in love with it.

[@monam.cladis6226]

Fabulous recipe Akis! My Greek husband said more oregano & garlic. Otherwise great! Just like his Mama’s!❤

[@lunatrics]

Thx a billion. Im making these this weekend

[@cynthiavantas3365]

Thank you Akis Can’t wait to make it your way Kali Orexi

[@mq7010]

Great recipe and great tips God bless you

[@seanmcerlean]

You are really treating us this week Akis 😊🇬🇷

[@Kma11111]

Another wonderful recipe, my guests were very satisfied. I also hid a piece of feta in the middle of the meatballs. I can only speak for myself here (the ovens in professional kitchens are likely to be a bit more powerful than those of amateur cooks), but my potatoes were still very hard, so next time I will blanch them for a few minutes beforehand.

[@mlersk8830]

Delicious- one of my favorite things to order in Athens. Akis knows his stuff! You have to have pork and beef!! The pork gives a sweetness and mildness to the meat! Same with moussaka. So many recipes don’t do this. Bravo!! Xx

[@robertov1781]

The best. Greeting from Italy

[@giraffesinc.2193]

Thank you, Akis! I think my Dad will love this recipe!

[@akispetretzikisen]

I am sure he will!

[@mardga]

And you know how to inspire! This looks delicious, I will definitely make it. My niece will be visiting soon, and in addition to our traditional dishes, now I plan to cook Biftekia)

[@mardga]

Update: I made this dish and it was super delicious, thanks for the recipe!

[@POMTERAK]

Efgaristo poli thank you very much for the yummy recipe

[@user-iz3go3jy4n]

Aki, lovely recipe! And I appreciate that you elaborate on the proper amount of salt to use - you know you are in britain, after all😁

[@yollyulgado7153]

Mouthwatering watching you cooking this Biftekia 😋 😘 more power

[@suratiivey9142]

What a great kitchen

[@veronicatselentis2674]

Bravo Aki you are amazing!,, I followed all your receipts it helped me a lot. For the biftekia I will use normal bread and gluten free because my son in law had a problem. I will let you know if it is worked. So it will be 2 KINDS of biftekia. NA ise kala me igia ke epitihies. Apo tin Notio Afriki 😊

[@avrevs]

I love your herb rack - it's so cute! I really need some comfort food. So I think I will try this tonight. The soaked bread kindof freaks me out though. My grandma used to make me cook milk toast for her... ugh! I will just close my eyes. I'm sure it will be delicious once I move past that part. There are no Greek restaurants here - so it is home cooking or nothing. Thank God for Akis!

[@eridanus82]

You can soak the bread in water. Works very nice.

[@WelshLioness]

A Timeless wonderfull Recipe 😊

[@yradierruizmalave737]

I use a little bit of cornstarch or potato starch... Gives a fluffier texture...

[@yaseminaksoy1680]

@@yradierruizmalave737 ooh good tip,better than baking poder cause its taste a bit bitter
