Vegetables are revolting.
No longer content to be set on the side of meat, they have taken centre stage.
Think about what vegetable you would like for dinner, rather than what meat.
Then grill eggplant (aubergine), zucchini, red, green and yellow peppers (capsicums), brushed with herbed olive oil. Roast beetroot, potatoes, sweet potatoes, pumpkin, carrots, parsnips.
Boil artichokes, asparagus, beans, peas, cabbages, cauliflower.
Fry eggplant, zucchini, potatoes and parsnip, cut very finely into vegetable chips.
