Modernistic Greek ravioli… Blasphemy or the way to go?? Having lived almost half of my life in the Mediterranean, Greek food has firmly taken a very special place in my heart  You might have noticed that from my several “tzatziki” themed videos.

I promise I won’t be altering the original flavour too much… I’m only gonna play with texture, colour scheme and plating of this magnificent traditional Greek dish. The style that we are going for in this Modernistic Greek ravioli recipe is “sophisticated simplicity”, a very simple, yet modern and clean look.
