Hot Tips

Chopping garlic

Squash the unpeeled garlic using the flat side of a large knife to loosen the skin and help release the flavour and oils. Peel the garlic and then roughly chop. All of the pieces need to be about the same size to ensure consistency while cooking.

Glossary

Babaganoush

An aubergine puree, made with garlic and Tahini from the Middle East.
