Spetzofai (Greek Sausage and Peppers) image

This is a dish typical to the Pilion region of mainland Greece. It is hearty winter fare, and much loved at the tavernas catering to skiers.

Time 50m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 medium onions, chopped coarse
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 lbs spicy country sausage, cut into thick slices (if you can access greek sausage, all the better)
2 red bell peppers, chopped coarse
1 large ripe tomatoes, finely chopped with juice
1 garlic clove, sliced
1/2 cup dry red wine
1 dash cayenne
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • In a heavy-bottomed frying pan or skillet, sauté the onion in the olive oil over medium heat until translucent, about 5-8 minutes stirring constantly with a wooden spoon. Add sausage, peppers, chopped tomato and juice, and garlic, and stir until all ingredients are well mixed. Stir in wine and cayenne, and season to taste. Cover and cook for 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Spoon onto serving plates and serve warm. A favorite with rice or mashed potatoes.

This dish was a little too salty for my taste. I think it was because I used a spicy Italian sausage. Next time, I'll use a milder sausage or add less salt. But overall, the dish was still very good.

This was a really easy dish to make, and it turned out great! I used a spicy Italian sausage, and it gave the dish a nice kick. The peppers and tomatoes were roasted to perfection, and the feta cheese added a nice creamy texture. I served it with ric

I've never had Greek sausage before, but I really enjoyed it in this dish. It was flavorful and juicy. The peppers and tomatoes were also cooked perfectly. I would definitely make this dish again.

This dish was a bit bland for my taste. I think it needed more seasoning. But the sausage was cooked well and the peppers and tomatoes were roasted nicely. I would probably try this recipe again, but I would add more spices next time.

I'm not a big fan of Greek food, but I really enjoyed this dish. The sausage was well-seasoned and the peppers and tomatoes were roasted to perfection. The feta cheese added a nice touch of creaminess. I would definitely make this dish again.

I made this dish for a party last weekend, and it was a huge success! Everyone loved it. I especially liked the way the feta cheese melted over the sausage and peppers. It was so good, I'm already planning on making it again next week.

This dish was a little too spicy for me, but my husband loved it. He said it was the best sausage and peppers he's ever had. I'll definitely be making it again, but I'll use mild sausage next time.
