It’s another one of those posts of plenty I’m afraid, lots of dishes from my kitchen that I hope you might like…the picture above includes some of the dishes I made for our Sunday evening meal, and this is what they include…
The salad..slices of beautiful ripe tomatoes, sliced raw red onions and chopped parsley, sprinkled with salt and sumac, and drizzled with copious amounts of olive oil.
I ate it like a version of fattoush, with pieces of tortilla fried in rapeseed oil, so that the bread soaked up the dressing..
The green stuff is a dip of peas, garlic, yoghurt, ground roasted cumin and coriander seeds, and a sprinkling of Aleppo chilli flakes…
I had leftover potatoes that I’d boiled the previous day for something else, which I mixed with freshly made chermoula and left for a few hours for the flavours to develop and infiltrate the potatoes..
Alongside these I served a bowl of the tortilla chips I’d made, and spelt sourdough naan breads with nigella seeds (based on similar methods shared in my previous post…
I served all of these with some freshly made homous, and sriracha homous, plus chicken kebabs which I’d marinated in yoghurt, lemon juice, garlic and Aleppo chilli flakes for my boys; when I made the marinade, I saved some and spread it over a halved and scored aubergine…
Then baked it the next day until it was lovely and soft inside..
As you can imagine, I’ve thoroughly enjoyed eating the leftovers of all of these dishes too, these kinds of concoctions only get better with time 🙂
I hope you like them x
Oh my gosh. All these dishes look soo amazing. Especially the naan bread and the tomato sauce!

I absolutely love dips of all kinds and what a spread? The pea dip looks so vibrant and your baked aubergines sounds like heaven I have to admit! Sriracha homous is just inspired and well, I know I am! And will take all the inspiration and head for the shops to get some dinner 🙂 Have a great week!

I’ve marinated and then roasted chunks of aubergine lots of times, but never just cutting the aubergine in halves like this, I actually think it works better 🙂
