Ajo Blanco con Uvas

Recipe by: DAY-STAR

Be the first to review it!

This is a cold, garlicky Spanish soup - perfect in summer, especially if you can't make it to Spain. Fresh almonds, just out of their shells, are traditionally used. This version calls for ground almonds, as fresh almonds are hard to come by here.

Aubergine Rounds

Be the first to review it!

Savoury aubergine with a hint of spice. Serve as a starter, side, or use to top toasties with lots of melted cheese. I recommend grilling these rounds rather than frying, but they are delicious either way!

This is a family recipe.

Authentic Thai Tom Yum Soup

Recipe by: STEVE ALDER

Be the first to review it!

An authentic Thai hot and sour soup. Do not attempt to omit the coriander, as this is essential. Use thai basil instead of regular basil if you can find it. Tom yum paste is hot, so try the soup before adding the chilli and decide if any extra heat is required. You can buy the paste in Asian supermarkets or there's a brand called "Thai taste" at Waitrose. This is well worth the trouble!

Recipe by: VALKARYN

Baba Ghanoush

Recipe by: Winky

Be the first to review it!

This is a heavenly roasted aubergine dip which originates from Lebanon. Delicious served with pitta, vegetables and houmous as part of a meze platter, or - of course - on it's own!

Bacon Wrapped Mushrooms

Recipe by: Blake Smith

Reviews(1)

Mushrooms and bacon make a lovely pair. It can't get simpler than this recipe. Use cocktail sticks to hold the bacon in place while cooking. I usually have to make a double batch of this party favourite to satisfy our guests.
