Roasted Aubergine with Fried Onion and Chopped Lemon

Aubergine, feta and lemon. Perfect – on its own or with pasta. But aubergine, feta and lemon with aromatic, caramelized onion? Interesting suggestion Yotam Ottolenghi.

Chicken Salad with Garlic and Yoghurt

Yotam Ottolenghi’s recipes are always delicious and usually vegetarian so I was intrigued by his chicken salad with garlic and yoghurt which I caught sight off in the Guardian. And anyone who has met me twice knows yoghurt, salad and garlic are surefire winners. Plus I am always on the hunt for cooking chicken without drying it out because dry chicken is the stuff of horror movies.

Fennel and Lemon Risotto

Organic vegetable boxes! What fun!

Ruth gave me some fennel from hers haul last Saturday and I spent a large part of this week debating with myself what to do with it. I don’t buy fennel often; I’m not entirely sure why, maybe its because its strong flavour demands forethought, maybe because in my head it is a vegetable for special occasions.
