- 500 g cherry tomatoes (a mix of yellow and red ones)
- ½ cucumber
- 3 cloves of garlic
- 30 g pit less black olives
- 1 tbs fresh chives
- 5 tbs fresh basil
- 60 ml white wine vinegar
- 100 ml olive oil
- salt and pepper
Preparation:
Cook the pasta in salted water which also has the cloves of garlic in it. Pour off the pasta when it is ‘al dente’, and let it drain. Keep the garlic for the dressing. Chop the small tomatoes, olives, cucumber, chive and basil. Mix them in a bowl in the pasta. Peel the garlic cloves and squash them. Blend the garlic with vinegar, oil, pepper and salt and sprinkle this dressing over the salad.
Beat the egg yolks and chive in a bowl. Add drop wise (at the end this can be done faster) the oil to the mayonnaise. Adjust the taste with pepper and lemon juice.
The vegetables:
Grill the unpeeled vegetables on all sides until the vegetables are black. Take the vegetables off the grill and put them on a wet dishcloth to cool off. Peel the black part off the vegetables and cut them into cubes. Mix the vegetables with olive oil, pepper, chive and chopped parsley. Serve with a jar of chive mayonnaise.
Mix the soy sauce, olive oil, ginger, garlic and chilli powder in it, and cut the Tahoe into cubes. Lay the Tahoe for about 1 to 2 hours in a marinade and turn it so now and then. In the meanwhile clean the mushrooms. Peel the onion and cut it into 8 pieces, cut the pepper into 20 pieces. Cut the rosemary twigs into pieces. Alternate cubes of Tahoe, pepper, onion and mushrooms on 4 skewers. Stitch the twigs of rosemary in between them. Spread the remainder of the marinade on the skewers. Lay them on a hot barbecue for about 10 minutes, while continuously tuning them.
Cut the tomatoes horizontally in halves. Roast the peanuts in an anti-stick pan until they are golden brown. Chop the peanuts and subsequently grate the parmesan cheese. Take the halved tomato and stack successively a tsp of ground peanuts, a tsp of pesto and a little parmesan cheese on it. Wrap each tomato in a piece of aluminium foil and put them on the barbecue until the cheese is melted.
Clean the mushrooms and carefully take the stem off. Fill the mushrooms with spiced cheese. Take 4 aluminium sheets and put the mushrooms in one at the time. Close the foil by folding it. Lay the packages on the barbecue, for about fifteen minutes.
Lay the tortillas open and arrange the goat cheese, courgettes and onion rings on the lower half. Sprinkle coriander over them and fold the tortilla. Spread the outside of the tortilla with some oil and lay the wraps on a grill bowl on the barbecue, for about 5 minutes. Let them roast until they are crusty brown and turn them over halfway through. This wrap tastes good with guacamole or hot salsa.

Preparation:
Let the salted water cook in a big pan and add grape leaves. Let it cook for about 4 minutes. Then rinse the leaves with cold water and let them drain. Cut the small goat cheeses lengthwise in half. Mix 60 ml olive oil with oregano, basil, garlic, salt and pepper. In the middle of each grape leaf, put a laurel leaf and pour some marinade over it. Put a little goat cheese on it and then pour some marinade over it. Close the grape leaves by folding them and pin them with a wooden pin. Put the goat cheese wraps in the freezer to marinade for about an hour. Spread the outside of the grape leaves with the olive oil and grill the wraps on each side on the barbecue, for about 3 minutes.
Cut the eggplants lengthwise into thin slices. Grill them on the barbecue for a few minutes. Mix the olive oil with the lemon zest, garlic and pepper, and marinate the grilled eggplant in the mixture for two hours. Cut the feta into fingers of the same width as the eggplant slices. Roll up each slice, placing a piece of feta and a few pieces of sun-dried tomato in the middle.
Can be served cold, but you can also slightly warm the rolls on the barbecue before serving.
Blanch the artichokes in boiling water for 5 minutes and thread onto skewers. Mix all other ingredients for the dressing. Grill the artichokes and serve with the dressing.

Puree the dried tomatoes with the oil and basil in a food processor. Season with pepper. Pat the eggplant slices dry and top with the tomato mixture. Firmly roll up each slice. Thread new potatoes, eggplant rolls and cherry tomatoes in alternating order onto skewers. Brush skewers with olive oil. Grill on barbecue.
