感覺如果你走到希臘城鎮(zhèn)的任何一個角落，就可能會發(fā)現(xiàn)一個街頭市場。如果你走過這些色彩繽紛的市場，就很容易理解為什么希臘食物如此受歡迎———它是用優(yōu)質(zhì)、新鮮的食材烹飪的簡單食物。

以下是在這個國家最受歡迎的幾種食物。

Greek salad

It doesn’t get muchsimpler than this. But a niceGreek salad is delicious， withits salty feta2 cheese， juicytomatoes， black olives， crispvegetables and great olive oil.

希臘沙拉

沒有比這更簡單的了。但是一份令人喜愛的希臘沙拉是美味的，里面有咸的羊乳酪、多汁的西紅柿、黑橄欖、清脆的蔬菜和上好的橄欖油。

Souvlaki

This is the country’s favorite fast food.There are shops everywhere selling grilled3meat on sticks or wrapped in breads filledwith French fries， salad，and sauce4.

You’ll usually get a choice of pork orchicken， or you might like a gyro5 madefrom thin-sliced meat from a rotisserie6.

這是這個國家最受歡迎的快餐。到處都有商店出售烤肉串或和薯條、沙拉和醬汁一起夾在面包里。

你通常可以選擇豬肉或雞肉，或者你可能會喜歡用旋轉(zhuǎn)烤肉架上的薄肉片做的希臘旋轉(zhuǎn)烤肉卷餅。

Vegetables and dips

Lots of vegetables are used in Greekcooking， and they’re often enjoyed asstarters to share. You might try fried zucchini7， boiled spinach8 with lemon juice，or green beans in tomato sauce. These mightcome with warm bread and delicious dips.

蔬菜和蘸料

希臘烹飪中使用了很多蔬菜，它們通常被當(dāng)作開胃菜來分享。你可以嘗試炸西葫蘆，煮菠菜加檸檬汁或青豆加番茄醬。它們可能會搭配熱面包和美味的蘸料。

Meat and fish

But when the meat comes out， it’sserious！ Lamb is traditional at Easter inGreece， while beef is used in popular disheslike moussaka9 and pastichio.

And for a country with so manykilometers of coast， fish is also important.White fish is often cooked just with oil andlemon juice， although fried squid10 and verysmall fish are also popular by the sea.

肉和魚

但是當(dāng)肉出來的時候，就要重視了！在希臘，羊肉是復(fù)活節(jié)的傳統(tǒng)食物，而牛肉則被用在茄合和希臘式千層面等受歡迎的菜肴中。

對于一個擁有如此多公里海岸線的國家來說，魚類也很重要。白魚通常只用油和檸檬汁烹飪，雖然炸魷魚和非常小的魚也很受歡迎。

Pies

Let’s not forget the"flaky11 pies that make perfect"snacks or breakfasts.
