Andrea's Spiral Kolokithopites - Cypriot Pumpkin Pies
Andrea’s family regularly gathers to cook and eat together, whether it’s for a special family celebration or just to enjoy each other’s company for the day. What a joy it was to spend the day with three generations of the family as they prepared a variation of Kolokithopites. Kolokotes, or Kolokopites are Cypriot pumpkin pies traditionally made with a thick style pastry in a semi-circle shape. Today, Andrea’s family are making them with our family’s Fillo Pastry in a spiral shape, using fresh pumpkin from Pappou Savva’s garden. Watch along to see how they make them.
