mmmm...those sound yummy!..esp the brie one

I like a quick meat dish to bung on when there are gaps on the rack...

Bash some turkey ( or chicken ) fillets with a rolling pin until they are about 3/4 cm thick and cut into roughly 5x7cm pieces

Slosh with lemon juice,garlc paste and chilli powder ( or red thai paste) and some salt and roll in sunflower oil.

Takes about 5 min to BBQ

or- roll the flattened pieces in sunflower oil mixed into a thick paste with peanut butter

both very very fast to prepare- and cook ( who wants to spend hours in the kitchen??

)

Hallumi is yummy - and simples- just slice and BBQ

Recently I drizzled pakchoi in olive oil, and ground some pepper on it - bbq'd until the leaves started to wilt - that was really nice.

Every BBQ we stick a banana in foil into the coals (if not using a gas bbq) after the cooking is done - by the time we've eatent he food the bananas are all gooey inside. This works well with a sqaure or two of chocolate in there too. Hot gooey choc+banana - yum! Great wtih a dollop of ice cream.

I like that recipe, HW. Specially with a few Beans climbing round the garden!
Keep 'em coming folks - this could be a useful thread for Grapes looking for inspiration!
And I, for one, am feeling hungry already!

Salmon parcels.
Place a fillet of salmon on a rectangle of tin foil , season well, add herbs and rub in a splash of olive oil. Fold foil up and seal two sides. Holthe parcel up so open end is at the top. Give it a good splosh of dry martini or white wine. Seal the last side. Pop on the barbie for about 15 -20 mins until the foil has puffed up. Open parcels carefully on a plate.

One of the things that Mr TK likes to do on the BBQ is sweetcorn. When we can't buy it in the husks he lays a piece of foil flat, folds up the edges and then puts a bit of kitchen paper on to it, soaks the kitchen paper with a cup full of water, lays the sweetcorn on top of it with a knob of butter on top of the sweetcorn. Folds the edges up so that the water doesn't leak out to seal. Places this onto the bbq for about 20 mins or so.

I must admit that these are really lovely and juicy!

We also like to do fresh sardines just sprinkled with sea salt.....yummy!

When I lived in South Africa I became addicted to "flatties".

Basically, you take a whole chicken, cut out it's backbone, flatten it, take out the keel bone, then put some skewers diagonally thru to hold it flat. Marinate in piri-piri sauce for a few hours and then throw it on the BBQ until cooked thru. It was a lot easier in Jo'burg as you could buy them ready flattened & marinaded from the supermarket. Over here I have to do the prep myself and I usually cook it in the oven for a while then finish it off on the BBQ to be safe.

Here's a video on how to prepare the bird, some call it spatchcocking, some call it butterflying.

Diced chicken breasts marinated in a mix of

Crunchy peanut butter
chopped spring onions and garlic
light soy sauce
sesame seeds
veg oil to blend

Bung on skewers

I use foil trays from wilkos on the BBQ so the marinade doesn't drop through.

One thing we did at our last barbecue was asparagus wrapped in parma ham. Everyone loved it.

Snap it, wrap it, grill it. Simple.

Spankingly fresh fish, gutted and rubbed with olive oil and much Maldon sea salt.

Plain old halloumi and pepper kebabs with tomatoes.

Butterflied leg of lamb with garlic and rosemary pricked in all over, seasoned and rubbed in oil.

Marshmallows on sticks.

And more salad and breads than you think you need.

I can be a 'fussy' cook, but I think barbie's are best left simple.
