Aubergine and feta cakes with fresh tomato and mint cous cous
I stole the idea for the cakes from the Fat Cat cafe - I reckon mine had the edge ;)
Rough recipe:
- 1 large or 2 small aubergines, sliced in half, grilled until soft and scooped out of skin
- 1/4 pack of feta
- slice of breadcrumbs
- 1 egg yolk
- plenty of seasoning, chilli, mint and lemon
Fork together, pat in cake shapes, roll in gram flour and chill before frying on both sides.
Cous cous: fresh tomato, sun dried tomato, mint, lemon, chilli, sumac.
Aubergine parmigiana with homemade bread
Tomato salad with balsamic and feta
Recipe from Jamie’s 30 minute meals (I added the feta)
Griddled marinated halloumi and veg with couscous
Halve some cherry tomatoes, season and pop into a low-medium oven for an hour to dry out. Heat up the griddle pan. Chop halloumi, courgette and mushroom (whatever veg is in the fridge, really) into equal-size chunks.
Marinade: olive oil, a clove of garlic, a good shake each of sumac, coriander, mint, oregano and chilli flakes. Salt and pepper and a good dash of lemon juice. Tip most of it over the halloumi and veg, reserving some to mix into the cous cous. Tip the halloumi and veg onto the griddle and let it get nice and charred all over. Steam the cous cous in water with a little veg stock and mix through the remaining marinade. Serve all piled up with some lemony-minty yogurt.
