1. Homemade Greek-Style Flatbreads

Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 10 minutes
Optional Rest Time: 10–15 minutes

There’s something special about soft, warm flatbreads, especially when you’ve made them yourself. These simple Greek-style flatbreads are chewy and golden, perfect for scooping, wrapping, or dunking. They’re the cornerstone Greek Mezze recipe, made with just a handful of ingredients and no yeast, so they’re quick enough for a weeknight and satisfying enough for a weekend feast.

Ingredients (Makes 4–6 small flatbreads):

• 250g plain flour (plus extra for dusting)
• 1 tsp baking powder
• ½ tsp salt
• 150g Greek yoghurt (full fat works best)
• 1 tbsp olive oil

Method:

1. Mix the dough: In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt. Stir in the Greek yoghurt and olive oil. Mix until it comes together, then knead by hand on a floured surface for 2-3 minutes until smooth.
2. Rest (optional): Let the dough rest for 10-15 minutes. This isn’t essential, but it makes rolling easier.
3. Divide and roll: Split the dough into 4-6 equal pieces. Roll each one into a rough circle or oval, about ½ cm thick.
4. Cook: Heat a dry pan (non-stick or cast iron works best) over medium heat. Cook each flatbread on each side for 1–2 minutes, or until golden brown with light char marks.
5. Serve warm: Brush with olive oil and a sea salt or oregano sprinkle.

Tip:

These freeze beautifully. Make a batch, let them cool, and stash them in the freezer for quick homemade touches to your next GSN Greek meal.

2. Homemade Tzatziki

Prep Time: 10 minutes
Chill Time (optional): 15+ minutes

Tzatziki is the cooling, creamy staple of any Greek-inspired meal… Making it fresh at home takes it to the next level, and it’s one of the easiest Greek Mezze recipes you’ll find!

This version is thick, garlicky, and packed with cucumber and herbs. It pairs beautifully with GSN’s Greek Chicken Bites, works as a wrap spread, or doubles as a dipping sauce for your homemade flatbreads.

Ingredients:

• 200g Greek yoghurt (full-fat for best texture)
• ½ cucumber, grated
• 1 clove garlic, finely minced
• 1 tbsp olive oil
• 1 tbsp fresh dill or mint, finely chopped (optional, but recommended)
• 1 tsp lemon juice
• Salt and pepper to taste

Method:

1. Prep the cucumber: Grate the cucumber and squeeze out as much liquid as possible using a clean tea towel or kitchen paper.
2. Mix it up: In a bowl, combine the yoghurt, grated cucumber, garlic, olive oil, lemon juice, and herbs.
3. Season: Add salt and pepper to taste.
4. Chill: Let it rest in the fridge for at least 15 minutes before serving, longer if possible. The flavours deepen beautifully over time.

Tip:

Make a big batch. It lasts up to four days in the fridge and tastes even better the next day.

3. Quick Pickled Red Onions

This is the ultimate low-effort, high-impact addition. Quick-pickled red onions bring a sharp, tangy bite that cuts through the richness of dips and meat.

They are the perfect Greek Mezze recipe for balancing the flavours in your GSN Greek meals. They also add a beautiful pop of colour, making any plate look more appetising.

Ingredients:

• 1 medium red onion, thinly sliced
• 120ml white wine vinegar or apple cider vinegar
• 120ml water
• 1 tsp sugar
• ½ tsp salt
• Optional: pinch of dried oregano, a clove of garlic, or a few peppercorns for extra flavour

Method:

1. Slice the onion: Use a sharp knife or mandoline to get thin, even slices.
2. Make the brine: In a small saucepan, heat the vinegar, water, sugar, and salt until just simmering. Stir until the sugar dissolves.
3. Combine & rest: Place the onions in a clean jar or bowl. Pour the hot liquid over the top, ensuring they’re fully covered.
4. Cool and chill: Let them cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 30 minutes (1-2 hours is ideal).

Tip:

These will be kept in the fridge for up to 2 weeks. They are great to have on hand for wraps, bowls, or even a cheeky cheese toastie.

4. Roasted Red Pepper & Feta Dip (Htipiti)

This smoky, tangy dip is a Greek mezze essential! It is THE unbeatable way to add richness and colour to your plate. Known as Htipiti, this roasted red pepper and feta dip is bold, creamy, and addictive. Use it as a spread in a homemade GSN Greek Wrap, a dip for Chicken Bites, or dolloped alongside your flatbreads, the last of our Greek Mezze recipes (for now), and possibly the most versatile and impactful.

Ingredients:Upgrade your GSN Greek meals with easy mezze recipes like flatbreads, tzatziki, pickled onions, and pepper dip. Fast, fresh, and full of flavour.

• 2 red peppers (or use jarred roasted peppers to save time)
• 150g feta cheese
• 1 tbsp olive oil
• ½ tsp chilli flakes (adjust to taste)
• 1 tsp lemon juice
• Optional: 1 clove garlic, roasted or minced

Method:

1. Roast the peppers: Place whole peppers under a grill or over a gas flame until blackened all over. Cover them in a bowl and let them steam for 10 minutes. Peel off the skins and remove the seeds.
2. Blend: Add the roasted peppers, feta, olive oil, lemon juice, and chilli flakes to a food processor. Blend until it is mostly smooth, leaving a little texture.
3. Taste & tweak: Adjust seasoning with more lemon or chilli as needed.
4. Chill or serve immediately: It keeps well for 2-3 days in the fridge and tastes even better after resting.

Tip:

If you’re short on time, swap two good-quality jarred roasted peppers. Drain them well before blending.
