Pastitsio

Very similar to our baked pasta

Pastitsio is another very caloric Greek dish. Very similar to our baked pasta, it is an ancient recipe based on ziti, meat sauce and other ingredients that make it a truly rich and complete first course.
The touch of grace is certainly given by the thick layer of béchamel covering the ziti with meat sauce.
Pastitsio is certainly a fabulous dish for lovers of baked pasta, but it's not one of the typical dishes that Marco likes.
