Method
For the kofta: Combine all the ingredients in a bowl, then form into koftas on to skewers.
Leave to chill for 1 hour. Pan fry or griddle all over, until golden brown all over and cooked
to your preference.
For the chumps: Preheat oven to 180 deg cel. Heat a large frying pan over a medium high
heat, add a splash of oil. Season the the chumps with salt and pepper, and place them skin
side down in the pan.
Cook until golden brown and the fat has rendered down, then quickly seal all over, and
place in the oven for around ten minutes or until the core temperature reaches 55/60 deg
cel. Rest for at least ten minutes. Trim edges and cut in half.
For the confit ratte potatoes: Gently squash the garlic and place in a medium saucepan with
all other ingredients, cover with olive oil. Cook on a low heat until potatoes are tender,
about 30/45 minutes. Drain and slice in half on an angle.
For the aubergine puree: Combine the salt and sugar, and spread half of this mix on a tray.
Slice the aubergines into 1cm discs and place on this salt mix, and then cover with remaining
mix. Leave for 30 minutes, then rinse and dry.
Heat a griddle until smoking hot. Lightly oil the aubergine, and place on the griddle. Cook
until golden brown on both sides and fully cooked. Blend the aubergine till smooth. Add
sherry vinegar and smoke powder to taste, and continue to blend. Check seasoning.
For the yoghurt pudding: Combine yoghurt, sugar, salt, and ultratex in a blender or bowl.
Mix until combined, then add chopped mint and place in a piping bag.
Parsley, lemon, garlic oil: Place all the ingredients in the themomix, and cook and blend at
90 deg cel for 7 minutes. Strain through muslin, and chill over ice. Alternatively, blanch the
parsley until tender in a pan of boiling water, strain and squeeze dry. Place in a blender, and
add the other ingredients and blend until smooth. Then as above.
For the roast garlic: Place the garlic in a small saucepan and cover with mix made up of half
milk and water, and large pinch of salt. Cook until tender, drain and dry. Pan fry in a little
olive oil, until golden brown, just before serving.
For the red pepper reduction: Remove the seeds from the pepper, and place in a blender
with a splash of water and the sugar. Blender until fully puréed, strain through a fine sieve
and place in a small saucepan. Place over a low heat and reduce until it reaches a syrup
consistency.
