Nane bulamadığım için yerine taze dereotu kullandım, limonla birlikte yine ferah bir tat verdi ama Yunan mutfağının klasik kokusu biraz eksik kaldı. Kıvrım tekniği ilk denemede zor geldi, ikinci partide kolaylaştı.

Limon kabuğu rendesi fetanın tuzluluğunu gerçekten güzel dengeledi, kıvrımları sıkı tutmayı başarınca hiçbir mantı açılmadı.
