My Lekker Middetereense Groente





My Special Mediterranean Vegetables©


By the Gourmet Geek

This is my favourite recipe, and I enjoy it as a meal-on-it’s-own, on toast, with any meat or braai. Use enough olive oil, and do not over-cook. I sometimes, just pop it in the oven as a roast, when I am too busy to watch the pan. I use the vacuum-packed dried ,black olives of one of our local Olive farms -  convenient and delicious!

INGREDIENTS:

1 medium Brinjal

1 Red Onion; 

2 cloves of garlic (chopped and crushed)

1 pk Button Mushrooms ( or 2 big black mushrooms)

6 Sundried Tomatoes (if available)

A handful of black olives

1 Red Pepper

Extra Virgin Olive Oil for cooking

3 sprigs Fresh Rosemary

2-3 whole basil leaves.

Pink Himalayan salt and freshly ground pepper to taste

METHOD:

Chop all vegetables in bite-size pieces.  Sauté onion in hot oil and then add garlic. Fry for a few minutes then the rest of the vegetables. Turn down the heat to medium and cover with a lid to steam until cooked for a pleasant and nutritious dish! (For the preparation of the Brinjal, see the consumers tip)

Uiteindelik

Uiteindelik maak ek tyd om my kos-blog te begin! ...ek gaan meestal net die resepte wat in die SUNSHINE COAST EXPRESS verskyn, maar dalk sal daar later meer tyd wees om baie meer te skryf. Tot later dan!
