Description

This Kritharaki casserole is a real feast for all lovers of Mediterranean cuisine! Juicy pork strips, tender Kritharaki pasta and crunchy vegetables combine to create a hearty dish that simply makes you happy. The feta provides a pleasant saltiness, while lemon and oregano give the casserole a fresh touch. I like to make this casserole when I have friends visiting, because it can be prepared very well and tastes delicious even when warmed up. A great dish for cozy evenings!
