Notes about Recipes in this book

  • Roasted aubergines with fennel and labneh

    • mjes on October 02, 2019

      No, I didn't start with Greek yogurt; my local co-op carries labneh although in small jars. So think of this recipe as simple roasted eggplant with a labneh topping flavored with nigella and fennel seeds, mint, and chili. The flavors meld nicely with the eggplant. I'll definitely repeat this recipe.

  • Wasabi cured salmon

    • mjes on October 09, 2019

      Want a substitute for gravlax? This recipe is exceptional but do search for true wasabi and a decent sake. Serving with crème fraîche, rye, and Blackened sweetcorn salsa makes sense I prefer to use as I would gravlax - more simply without salsa but rather lemon, cucumber, onion or shallot . . .

  • Sri Lankan butternut squash curry

    • mjes on October 09, 2019

      Everyone loved this coconut-based curry. The problem is figuring out how much one needs to cook to have any left-overs to see how it ages and reheats.

  • Mini poppadums with sour apple chutney

    • mjes on October 02, 2019

      Think poppadums dipped in a apple-crabmeat mix with Mauritian flavors. We all liked it but we have other favorite chutneys that are preferred.

  • Lamb with blackened sweetcorn salsa

    • mjes on October 09, 2019

      I made just the salsa to go with Wasabi cured salmon. With the exception of the mint, this is a decent but unremarkable sweetcorn salsa. I liked it but would not pair with the salmon. I prefer simpler flavors so I can concentrate on enjoying the salmon and true wasabi. However, I can see it going well with a summer grill and the mint makes lamb a likely pairing.
