5Sifnos’ Revithada – Slow-Cooked Chickpea Stew

Revithada is a traditional chickpea stew from the island of Sifnos, known for its slow-cooked, melt-in-your-mouth texture.

Made with simple ingredients—chickpeas, onions, olive oil, and lemon—this dish is traditionally baked in a clay pot overnight, allowing the flavors to develop into a rich and comforting dish. Served with fresh bread, revithada is a staple of Sunday lunches and a perfect example of the island’s rustic, hearty cuisine.
