Notes about Recipes in this book

  • Red-braised spatchcock with pickled eggplant

    • Margaretsmall on December 14, 2013

      I chose this because I had an eggplant languishing in the fridge. Used quail because I bought two on special in the supermarket. Halved the quantity of red stock, which was more than enough for the quail. I was taken aback when I cut them in half after the three hour soak in the red stock to find that they were quite raw inside, which the frying took care of, of course. The eggplant was tasty, but I'd peel them if I made this again, the skin was tough and not very nice. Altogether OK but not sensational. Served it with some brown rice and a mixed green salad.

  • Stir-fried chickpeas with black bean & chilli

    • runoutofshelves on April 14, 2020

      I was looking for a lunchtime recipe for a big pot of cooked chickpeas, one that had fresh ginger and I found this one.(among many) It was delicious. I added a yellow capsicum and I fried the spring onion in with the other onion.
