Bouyiourdi (Greek: Μπουγιουρντί) or bouyourdi is a Greek meze.
The dish originated in Thessaloniki and according to America's Test Kitchen is "essentially Thessalonian".[1] It consists of feta, tomatoes, peppers, oregano, olive oil and typically Bukovo crushed red pepper, and sometimes additional ingredients such as shredded kasseri, onions, and garlic.[1]
The ingredients are typically layered into an earthenware baking dish and baked; various recipes call for the baking to be done covered or uncovered.[1]
It is a common dish in tavernas.[1] It can be served with pita or other breads.[1][2] Etymologically, μπουγιουρντί ("bouyiourdi," 'spicy baked feta') derives from the Turkish word "buyurdu" (meaning 'ordered').[3]
