I visited good friends for dinner yesterday and was served this most delicious but simple supper for summer. My friend didn’t have any Cornichons so prepared the dish using capers instead, and this worked very well. The recipe is from Diana Henry’s ” From the Oven to the Table”, one of my go to cookbooks.
Another delicious vegetarian supper from ” Cook as You Are” by Ruby Tandoh. It can be served with a salad and brad to mop up the juices, or as part of a mezze spread.
