Mediterranean Hot and Spicy

By Aglaia Kremezi

We really liked this. It was easy to make and can be put together in steps as other things are happening.
I had a yellow bell pepper needing to be used so that stood in place of one of the three red bell peppers, making the dish even more colorful.
I made a whole recipe, which was really enough for four as a side. Served on sucrine (baby romaine) leaves.
Very tasty and pretty.

Tasty salad to use up that zucchini surplus. Just see that I forgot the mint, which would only have made it better.

Having bought a cabbage at the shops today, I made the winter variation of this using shredded cabbage. Good stuff. I made a half recipe and didn't think till too late that it is a main course. A good side dish also, but with leftovers.

The recipe calls for 7-8cups of stock. I used only 3cups and it was more than enough. I had to pour off liquid at the end.

Tasty and satisfying.

Made a halfish recipe with tuna.
Ed thought the sauce was too strong for the tuna; but it was good over the orzo I served as a side.
The times given for cooking tuna rare are much too long.
