The Savory Way

Bantam - 1990
Falafel with Walnut Sauce and Garnishes : page 274
NB: I used store-bought falafels.
A nice set of garnishes. The Walnut Sauce and Garnishes is very good.
Used all the garnishes except the grilled eggplant, plus some arugula/rocket.
We both thought this was best served as a salad, falafels cut in half with all the garnishes and the walnut sauce. Maybe half a pita each for pushing things around.

Rice with Black Pepper Sauce : page 253
Very tasty, comfort food. Quick.
- I didn't use mortar&pestle for the herbs, just chop-chop-chop. Gave the pepper corns (all 2tsps) a spin in the spice grinder.
- I used about half mozzarella and half Abondance.
I think this would be good with short-grain brown rice, although no longer quick.

Twisted Noodles and Olive Sauce : page 162
Good enough to eat, but don't need to make it again.
- Half recipe
- Casareccia instead of fusilli
Recipe instructions never tell you want to do with the sun-dried tomatoes that you've chopped up. I added them with the olives.and stuff.
- Don't miss garnishing with parsley. Otherwise it's pretty dark and unappealing.

Walnut Sauce with Fennel Seeds : page 322
A good sauce for falafels. Made a half recipe for two; we would have liked a bit more. Thought it was a bit runny while making it, but it wasn't really. Tasty.
