Kalogeros
Traditional, Unique and Meaty. This hearty Beef stew is baked and served as a casserole. It originates from the magnificent island of Naxos in the Cyclades. The dish is made with premium cuts of quality beef that have been stewed in tomato sauce all carefully layered with aubergine, tomatoes, Graviera cheese, cinnamon, and Kefalotyri cheese.
Steps to Make It
If using fresh beets: Remove leaves, leaving about an inch of stem, and don't cut the taproot. Wash gently, being careful not to break the skin, and place in a pot of cold water to cover.
Bring to a boil and cook until firm but cooked, about 40 to 50 minutes. Drain the beets, cool under running cold water, and remove skin with fingers. Slice.
Combine beets, garlic, oil, and vinegar in a bowl and toss. Add salt and pepper to taste, and refrigerate covered for several hours before serving.
