Spetzofai (or spetzofai or spetzofai) is a traditional, spicy dish of Greek cuisine with Italian roots! It is basically fried sausages with pepper and tomato sauce. The remaining ingredients, depending on the recipe, make the difference leading to the various variations. For example, some people want it hotter, others want it to taste milder, others make it juicy and others prefer it drier. Sweet peppers and village sausages are usually used for its preparation due to their intense and very special taste. In our country, the spetzofai of Pelion is famous, but also the spetzofai with giant beans.
