I can figure it out on my own i just thought y’all might have some better ideas for me to steal
Current plan so far is grilled eggplant steaks I’m gonna rub in olive oil and crushed toasted fennel seed/cumin/etc and serve with a drizzly lemon garlic tahini sauce, with one side being grilled broccolini that’s also gonna be lemony and garlicky and good
the sous chef and i were lazy on Friday and didn’t really figure out third thing but he was like “what about chickpeas and uhhhh tomatoes” so my current plan is roast some chickpeas, roast some diced tomatoes, toss it all together and season it like if i made harissa paste but leave the tomatoes chunky
any other ideas chat, or does that sound good, i get nervous my menu will be stupid. but chickpeas add protein and starch so like…
That sounds yummy but I’d like some carbs gonna suggest something adventurous like white rice with some veggies to soak up the juices afterward and eat it. I’m not a fancy chef tho so don’t know it that’s exciting or not just figured with how juicy the dish sounds having rice or bread afterward to clean up the plate is what my hungry ass would do
im just a guy whose boss lets him cosplay as one
if you get paid as one then it counts
Choices: broccolini risotto where i make some risotto with vegetable stock and then chop the grilled broccolini and mix it in, OR
I do the chickpea thing but present it with like rice with a trench in the middle filled with the chickpea tomato spimach slop
I am a fan of risotto but sounds like a lot of work the chickpea one sounds good still
