A delicious way to barbecue veggies.

Aubergine rolls

Recipe by: Norma MacMillan

Be the first to review it!

Unlike many aubergine recipes which swim in oil, this one has just enough extra virgin olive oil to enrich and enhance the vegetables in a dish that goes down well with both vegetarians and meat-eaters. This is a great cook-ahead dish, and it is delicious with crusty bread or baked potatoes and salad.

In this delicious supper dish, grilled slices of aubergine and courgette are layered with a rich tomato sauce and cumin-flavoured yogurt, then baked. Thick slices of Greek daktyla bread – topped with sesame, black onion and anise seeds – and a crisp green salad are perfect accompaniments.

This is an excellent dish for a summer barbecue party. Make the ribs in advance, and when your guests have arrived, finish them off on the barbecue. You'll have them wondering how they got so tender and tasty so fast.

A simple, hearty and tasty vegetarian dish. Good as a light main, side, or wrapped in a flour tortilla with cheese. I always make a double batch and freeze some.

Club-shaped butternut squash are widely available and make any dish look attractive and taste superb. Their glorious, sweet, orange flesh is rich in beta-carotene, as well as containing vitamins C and E.

Camembert and broccoli pancakes

Recipe by: Norma MacMillan

Be the first to review it!

Lacy, thin pancakes rolled around a tasty filling make a delightful main course. The beauty of this dish is that the pancakes, filling and tomato sauce topping can all be made in advance, then assembled and baked later.
