Purchase options and add-ons

Join Kon Karapanagiotidis at his table in A Seat at My Table: Philoxenia, a beautiful and inspiring Greek vegetarian and vegan cookbook. Featuring more than 100 recipes passed down through the generations, this book will teach you to cook with community at your heart, filled with the knowledge and wisdom of the Asylum Seeker Resource Centre’s (ASRC) inspiring founder and his mother, Sia.
 
‘Philoxenia’ means to welcome a stranger. It’s a message that pervades Greek culture and cooking. Chapter by chapter, this heartfelt book unfolds incredible meals drawn from this powerful philosophy, as well as from the love, hope and resilience that represent Kon’s own grandparents’ survival as refugees. Learn to make the dishes that line a mezze platter, including fresh tzatziki, golden saganaki and cheese-filled zucchini flowers, or veganise heavier dishes, such as moussaka and spanakopita. There are ample salads to serve up for lunch, highlighting everything from Ancient Greek grains, zucchini and artichoke to goat’s cheese, fig and pomegranate, as well as mouth-watering desserts (think Greek classics, such as loukoumades and baklava, as well as Greek-style coffees). Every vegetarian recipe includes instructions to make your dishes vegan or gluten-free. You’ll even find tips on minimising waste and gardening, courtesy of Sia, and Kon’s father, Leo. 
 
The ASRC is dedicated to standing with refugees and people seeking asylum to realise their rights and potential, and values the incredible resilience we share as humans, as well as our connection through food. Learn how you, too, can welcome your community to your table with A Seat at My Table: Philoxenia.
 
Kon will donate 100 per cent of his proceeds from the book to the ASRC, with Hardie Grant also giving $1 from each book sold.

Food for the heart and soul
The most beautiful cookbook, all so beautifully laid out and gorgeous photos. The recipes are so easily made and adaptable (wonderful suggestions for how to tweak eg to make them vegan etc). The only thing more wonderful than the delicious recipes, is how this mother and son have included us all at their warm and welcoming family table via their food. The perfect gift for birthdays, weddings, house warmings or any occasion for someone who wants to enjoy a feast for the eyes and soul as well as upping their cooking game. Simply beautiful

This book is so easy to follow & it also has vegan options with all the beautiful recipes. I loved the way it’s laid out with great photos & little personal stories. If you love Greek vegetarian/vegan food this is the book to buy. A fantastic bonus is knowing the profits from this book go to helping refugees.

Eating my way thru this book. Love the food, the philosophy behind it. Was born in Melbourne, the 3rd largest Greek city in the word. But it has taken decades for this cuisine to feature on our Aussie dinner table. Never too late.

All these recipes look good, having been a visitor to Crete every year for the past 18years. This will be a go to book as i cook a lot of greek food. Love that alternatives are included. For myself the only thing i would substitute are broad beans. Having family members and friends who are veggie, vegan, GF, dairy free etc, this is brilliant. Will be putting this into use next weekend.
