Melomakarona with Kelly Michelakis
Melomakarona with Kelly Michelakis - honey, olive oil and orange biscuits dipped in a clove and cinnamon infused syrup and topped with walnuts. Can be made without the honey to suit vegans. Traditionally made during times of celebrations such as Christmas but most people love the biscuits so much they make them all year round. Soft yer crumbly, Melomakarona are one of the classic and much loved Greek biscuits.

About Kelly
I’m Kelly, a passionate home cook with Cretan heritage, I host culinary travel tours to Crete and conduct Greek cooking classes and walking food tours in Melbourne. I help people to learn how to cook delicious and nutritious food, in a fun and interactive environment, so they can gain the kitchen skills needed to become confident cooks.
Always ambitious and a dreamer that believes all things are possible with enough time, effort and a little luck from the universe. Lover of desserts. Could talk about food and travel all day. An ideal place of residence would be any Greek Island, sipping on a frappe by the beach, eating fresh fruit and yoghurt from now until the rest of my life.
I look forward to welcoming you into The Hellenic Odyssey kitchen and learning about your food journey while I share my insights into Greek cuisine and the Greek way of life.
