Red Mullet Soup (8-10)

This is really a French recipe but it is from ” Rhodes Around Britain” by Gary Rhodes. It should be served with Garlic Toasts with Rouille. To make the garlic toast cut a french stick into 1 cm slices and spread with some garlic butter. Toast the slices then top with Rouille.

Aubergine Parmigiana (4-6)

This dish from Northern Italy  can be served as a vegetarian main course or as a side dish to accompany roasted meat or fish. This is  Jamie Oliver’s version from “Jamie’s Italy” published in 2005. I particularly like it because the aubergine is griddled rather than fried resulting in a less greasy dish than some versions. I like to serve it with some oven chips.
