The Greek omelette, also known as "strapatsada," is a traditional dish with a rich history dating back to ancient Greece. This flavorful omelette is made with eggs, tomatoes, feta cheese, and a variety of herbs and spices, giving it a unique Mediterranean twist. The dish is popular throughout Greece, but it is particularly beloved in the regions of Crete and Santorini, where local chefs have perfected the art of making the perfect strapatsada. The key to a delicious Greek omelette lies in using fresh, high-quality ingredients, especially ripe tomatoes and creamy feta cheese. For a twist, some chefs add olives or spinach to enhance the flavors. When visiting Greece, be sure to try this iconic dish at a local taverna for an authentic taste of Greek cuisine.
