Thankfully I am preparing a great "summerish" menu for tomorrow;
own grown bean sprouts |
2 light and luscious soups
a French Lentil ( blue-green small lentils) with cumin, ground coriander, ground cardamom..gives the soup a nice citrus spiced flavor.The first photograph above is the lentils washed and rinsed, before cooking.
A "French" tomato-vegetable with hints of anise, very nice and chunky
A great "warm" salad..grilled eggplant "steaks" with grilled tomatoes, mushrooms and a roast potato salad with a cumin and cashew dressing and cooked turemeric Lima bean & greens and /or steamed brown rice..the cashews are soaked overnight then blended with lemon juice, cumin, olive oil and adds the look of a creamy dressing (cashews although called a nut are actually a dried legume)
Amazingly I picked the mini tomatoes from my garden yesterday! |
Eggplant to be salted washed and rinsed then grilled tomorrow |
Desserts :
Oatmeal cookies with toffee chips
A glazed lemon-poppy seed cake with fresh local strawberries
