Stifado is a traditional Greek meat stew that is popular in Heraklion. It is made with tender chunks of beef or rabbit, cooked slowly in a rich tomato-based sauce with onions, garlic, red wine, and various herbs and spices. The stew is typically served with a side of orzo pasta or crusty bread. Stifado is a hearty and comforting dish that is perfect for colder days in Heraklion.
