Aubergine Baked Boats

We like to set ourselves little challenges. We’ve done the “Ingredients Alphabet”, “Around the World” etc. So this time we’re going to jump on the Vegetarian gig and do a “Vegetarian Alphabet”

Aubergine for “A” works.

We;re not into the “Fake Meat” concept so the Urad Dal which we bought from the local Continental shop added the Meaty texture.

Ingredients:-

Urad Dal – (Split Black Lentils)
½ tube of Tomato Puree
1 Aubergine halved and scooped out. (Save the flesh)
3 Onions, sliced
2 cloves of Garlic, minced
Mixed Herbs
Salt & Pepper
Chilli Flakes
Mushrooms, sliced
Grated Cheese
Cherry Tomatoes
Oil

Method:-

(1) Add the Tomato Puree to a little water in a saucepan and bring the Urad Dal to the boil. Reduce the heat, season with Salt and Pepper and simmer for a good hour. Add extra water as required as they are very thirsty little dudes.
(2) When the Urad Dal has expanded and softened take them off the heat.
(3) In a frying pan fry the Onions until translucent.
(4) Add the Mushrooms and fry for a further 5 minutes on a low heat.
(5) Cut the Aubergine lengthways, scoop most of the flesh out and Oil.
(6) Place in the oven at 180c and roast for 30 minutes.
(7) Add the Aubergine flesh, Urad Dal and all the other ingredients excluding the grated Cheese and halved Cherry Tomatoes to the frying pan and fry gently stirring occasionally.
(8) Remove the Aubergine halves from the oven and stuff with your filling.
(9) Heat the grill.
(10) Dress with the Cherry Tomatoes and grated Cheese and place under the grill.
(11) When the Cheese has melted you’re good to go.

We served ours with Chips and Peas. It was really very tasty and filling.

Pullum Benedict recipe

It’s a play on words really as there’s a yellow sticker Chicken Burger invasion in our version of an Egg Benedict. The Chicken mince I found at the same time was truly dreadful and regardless of how little it says on a yellow sticker, I’ll never buy it again. But these Burgers were very tasty. How the results from clearly mechanically recovered Chicken can be so variable, beats me…..

Ingredients for the Hollandaise Sauce:-

100g of Butter (Margarine), melted
2 Egg Yolkes
1 Tsp of White Wine Vinegar
Salt & Pepper

Method:-

(1) Whisk the Egg Yolks and White Wine Vinegar in a bowl.
(2) Place the bowl of a pan of simmering water, making sure the bowl is not immersed in the water.
(3) Slowly pour in the melted Butter while continuously whisking, until the sauce has thickened.
(4) Season with Salt & Pepper.

Additional Ingredients:-

A thick slice of Sour Dough bread per person (Gluten free for us)
Spinach
Chicken Burgers
Streaky Bacon
Vinegar
2 Eggs per person
Margarine
Fresh (Home grown) Parsley to garnish

Method:-

(1) Grill the Bacon until it is crispy.
(2) Gently fry the Burgers until they are browned on both sides and set aside under a warm grill.
(3) In a frying pan gently wilt the Spinach in a little Margarine.
(4) Toast the bread on both sides and set aside.
(5) Bring a pan of water to the boil and stir in a little Vinegar.
(6) Swirl the water and then poach the Eggs individually.
(7) Build by adding the wilted Spinach to the toasted bread. Next cut the Burgers in half and add them. Now add the poached Eggs. Pour the Hollandaise Sauce over the top and dress with the crispy Bacon and a sprinkle of Parsley.

This really was a very tasty meal. The Bread and Burgers were both yellow sticker finds. So although it looks a bit fancy this recipe was well within budget!
