This time last year we had boxes and boxes of Bananas to get rid of. A couple of days ago we found ourselves with a glut of Cauliflower. So what do you do with two heads of Cauliflower?

Ingredients:-

For the marinade:-

Cauliflower, cut into thick slices
Soy Sauce
Olive Oil
Honey
White Rice Vinegar
Crushed Garlic
Paprika
Chilli Flakes

For the Topping:-

Bacon
Cheese of your choice (We had some Yellow Sticker Blue Cheese and Mature Cheddar)
Grated Italian Style Cheese
Spring Onions

Method:-

(1) Mix the marinade ingredients.
(2) Preheat the oven to 180c.
(3) In a baking tray add the Cauliflower and pour over the marinade, holding a little back.
(4) Cook for 10 Minutes.
(5) Remove from the oven and add the Bacon over each slice.
(6) Cook for another 10 minutes, or until the Bacon is cooked to your liking. Pouring the reserved marinade over as you go.
(7) Remove and add your Cheese.
(8) Return to the oven until the Cheese has melted.

Serve with a scattering of Spring Onions, pan juices. Perhaps some Red Cabbage to add colour?

Lamb Kofta Wraps

I don’t often frequent the local Co-Op in the evening, but it’s probably worth sticking my head in a little more often. This Lamb mince was supposed to be £4.70 a pack, which I simply wouldn’t pay. But at £1.66 a pack it made the foundation for a real treat for us.

Ingredients for the Mayo Dressing:-

Mayonnaise
2 Cloves of Garlic, minced
2 tsp of Whole Grain Mustard
A Squeeze of Lemon juice.

Method:-

(1) Mix well.
(2) Set aside.

Ingredients for the Kofta:-

500g of Lamb Mince
1 Onion, finely chopped
2 Cloves of Garlic, minced
1 Tsp of Dried Ginger
1 Tsp of Chilli Flakes
1 Tsp Pepper Corns
1 Tsp Cumin powder
1 Tsp Coriander Powder
Juice of ½ a Lemon
1 Tsp Turmeric Powder
Salt
Oil

Salad leaves to dress.

Method:-

(1) In a Pestle & Mortar grind the dry ingredients.
(2) In a large bowel combine the chopped Onion and minced Garlic, minced Lamb, Oil and dried ingredients.
(3) Form into four Koftas around skewers.
(4) Grill on a medium heat turning regularly until cooked through and browned on all sides.
(5) Dress the inside of the wraps (Gluten free in our case) with a coating of the Mayo Dressing.
(6) Add a layer of salad leaves.
(7) Remove the Kofta from the skewer and place in the centre leaving space at one end to fold.
(8) Fold the end in and then wrap tightly.

We had Cajun Potato wedges with ours, the remain salad mix and the Mayo dressing to dip. Who needs a take away in a cold damp archway on the way home?!
