Herby potato & carrot rostis

Crispy and delicious. These can be flavoured with any herb or a combination of spices. Good for adults, kids, with anything, even just by themselves with salad. Best eaten hot or warm. I made these last night with too much egg, too little salt & herbs, they were edible but more like bland omelets.. not great as I was serving them with roasted Bream.  It was all a bit weird.  Oh well,  you live and learn! This makes six small cakes & serves 2 people 250g potatoes 1 medium carrot 200g feta 2 heaped teaspoons dill (or other herb) 1 egg Lots of seasoning! Olive oil Peel the potato and carrot and then coarsely grate into a sieve. Squeeze out moisture. Add herb of choice, black pepper and crumbled feta (if using). Lightly beat eggs and add to mixture. Make six flattened cakes from the mixture & fry them in a little olive oil until crispy. yum.

Cumin Roasted Carrots with Feta & Lentils

This came from a recipe by Ravinder Bhogal.. It's a bung-it-in-the-oven-job.  Perfect. Dead easy & delicious. This is a great side dish for some simple white fish, a steamed lemon chicken, or just by itself..  It is best served warm or at room temperature, so would be fantastic picnic fodder. Takes 45mins.  (5mins prep, 40mins in oven.) RECIPE BELOW:
