What was or is on your BBQ tonight?

Delightfully Tacky Lil Sqirts asked the question this afternoon on twitter "what will be on your BBQ tonight?" after posting a photo of what looked to be some scrummy satays. So... on the menu tonight at The Bower Birds Nest is:

Chargrilled chilli Calamari
Thanks to Dad'n heading out fishing early this morning, we are going to be enjoying the catch of the day... calamari, as fresh as it gets! It has been marinated in chilli, garlic, ginger, soy, lemon juice, lemon zest, fish sauce and olive oil. It will be seared for seconds and then demolished by ME! This is one of my favourite recipes.

Eggplant
Nothing fancy but absolutely delish, eggplant sliced into 1/2cm slices, lightly salted and grilled on the BBQ

Cubed potato with onion
Potato's that were chopped into 1cm by 1cm cubes, half cooked in the microwave, mixed with some diced onion and finished off on the BBQ.

Mushrooms
Straight up cut in half, on the BBQ. Love!

All served with a garden salad. Yummmmm.

So this is our version of an Australia Day BBQ... Some may say not very authentic, but to us it is!
