Bifteki is a popular dish from Greek cuisine, often likened to a flavorful Greek-style burger or meat patty. Traditionally made with ground beef or lamb, it is seasoned with herbs like oregano, parsley, and mint, along with garlic and onion. Egg or breadcrumbs are commonly added for binding, and some variations include a stuffing of feta cheese for added richness. Bifteki is typically served grilled, providing a smoky and aromatic taste, and is often accompanied by salads, pita, or roasted vegetables. As a source of protein, it can be a nutritious option, especially when paired with wholesome sides. However, recipes high in fat from cheese or excessive oils may add calories, making moderation essential for a balanced diet. Opting for leaner meat and light seasoning can make Bifteki a healthier indulgence that highlights the vibrant flavors of Mediterranean cooking.
