Aubergines, olive oil, tomatoes and a good story.
Shortly before the
recent Jubilee Weekend I had a meal with a couple of friends at what
is fast becoming one of my favourite eating houses in town. This
little gem of a place lists itself as Mediterranean but it leans
heavily towards the eastern (Turkish) end. Having kicked off with a
table full of dips and big basket of flat breads, two of us had gone
for a main course of aubergine stuffed with seasoned mince beef and
cheese. This was delicious. So much so that been in the middle of an
aubergine phase (my pasta sauce of choice at the moment is aubergine
and tomato) I decided to see if I could knock up something similar in
my own little kitchen.
The menu called our
aubergine dish 'Imam Bayildi'. But was it?
Do we have a case under
the Food Description Act...
