Marinating Ruminating

I'm marinating a quartered broiler in yogurt black pepper and salt and fresh garlic, to prep for fried chicken. Stay tuned.


Meanwhile I found this on The Guardian web site:

Strawberry, mint and feta salad

This is the time of year for strawberries. We love this no-fuss recipe, with its unusual combination of salty feta and sweet strawberries, while the mint adds a refreshing touch to the dish.

Twinny Dip, London; twinnydip.com

Serves 6
800g strawberries, washed and cut into halves or quarters
45g mint, leaves only, roughly chopped, plus extra to garnish
20g feta, crumbled
60g hazelnuts, lightly toasted
1 tbsp cider vinegar or lemon juice
Salt and black pepper

3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil

1 Mix the strawberries, mint, feta and hazelnuts in a large salad bowl.

2 Pour the vinegar or lemon juice into a smaller bowl, and season. Whisk in the olive oil.

3 Drizzle the dressing over the salad, and mix lightly. Garnish with mint leaves and serve.
