Kalogeros

(Καλόγερος)

Kalogeros is a traditional beef stew that's served as a casserole. It originates from Naxos. The dish is made with a combination of veal or beef chunks that have been stewed in tomato sauce, eggplants, tomatoes, Graviera cheese, cinnamon, and Myzithra cheese.


The eggplants are sliced in half and fried, then topped with the beef, Myzithra, slices of tomatoes, and Graviera cheese. The combination is sprinkled with cinnamon and baked until the Graviera cheese melts. Kalogeros is traditionally served with fried potatoes.


The dish is named after a mountain peak on Naxos.
