Theo’s Slow Baked Preserved Aubergine with Aloades Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Serves 4
Ingredients
12 baby aubergines
Handful sea salt
1 bulb garlic
3 strips lemon rind
3 bay leaves
Pinch chilli flakes
Few sprigs of thyme or rosemary
Pinch pink peppercorns
750ml Aloades extra virgin olive oil
Tahini dressing:
1 tbsp tahini
1 tbsp yogurt
1 tbsp water
Few drops lemon juice
1 tsp honey
250g Halloumi cheese
Pinch toasted almond flakes
Few basil leaves
4 sundried tomatoes
Method:
Preheated oven 160c FAN
Halve the baby aubergines, place in a colander above a bowl and food through a handful of sea salt then leave for 1 hour.
Shake off the salt, place the aubergines on a kitchen towel and dry.
Pour half the olive oil into a roasting tray just big enough to fit the aubergines then scatter in the remaining ingredients for the aubergines (breaking up the cloves from the garlic bulb). Pour over the remaining oil or enough to almost cover the aubergines.
Bake in the oven, uncovered for 1.5 to 2 hours. Leave to cool and place in a sterialised jar.
Mix all the tahini dressing ingredients together and reserve.
Slice the halloumi in inch thick slices, and place onto a hot griddle pan for a minute then turn to do the other side.
To assemble the dish, place a couple of slices of halloumi onto each plate, top with a few aubergines including a drizzle of the olive oil. Squeeze in a couple of sun dried tomatoes and sprinkle over a pinch of almonds and dot the tahini dressing in places. Garnish with a few basil leaves. Serve on flatbreads for a heavier meal.

ORZO LEMON CHICKEN TRAY BAKE – ALOADES OLIVE OIL
A deliciously simple and fresh tasting one-pan supper inspired by the popular yiouvesti Greek dish. Using top quality olive oil at the end finishes the recipe perfectly with a squeeze of lemon. Feta cheese crumbled on top and a few lemon wedges always looks great on top if you like.
This post is sponsored; but I only promote what I love and genuinely use – and these guys are great, first press olive oil from Cyprus by an incredibly ethical company. Find out more about Aloades Olive Oil – or try their olive oil – here.
Orzo Lemon Chicken Tray Bake Recipe
Ingredients
Half onion, diced
2 tbsp oregano
1 tbsp smoked paprika
800g chicken, diced
2 cloves garlic, sliced
1.5 cups orzo pasta
1 cup white wine
1 pint chicken stock
Handful Kalamata olives
1 lemon, juice and zest
Salt and Pepper
Handful fresh coriander, chopped
1 preserved lemon, thinly sliced
Method:
Dust the chicken with salt, pepper, oregano and smoked paprika and fry in olive oil till golden brown all over then remove from the pan. In the same pan, fry the onions till soft, about 10 minutes, then add the garlic, followed by the orzo pasta.
Fry the pasta for a minute before adding a cup of wine and simmer until reduced by at least half then reintroduce the chicken to the pan plus any leftover juices along with the olives and lemon zest.
Pour in the stock and simmer on a low heat, without stirring, for about 12 minutes or until chicken is cooked then turn off the heat. Finish with a drizzle of Aloades Extra Virgin Olive oil, the juice of half a lemon and a scattering of the fresh coriander and preserved lemons. Rest of 10 minutes before serving.

Do you want an effortlessly easy, salty-sweet, tangy salad dressing that’s guaranteed to transform a pile of boring leaves into something unbelievably delicious that you won’t be able to stop eating??
Then you just HAVE to try my favourite 4-ingredient salad dressing recipe:
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
1 tablespoon tamari (or sub soy sauce if not gluten-free)
1 tablespoon agave syrup (or sub any other sweetener)
I actually used to make this dressing using vegetable oil (yuck!), but this Aloades early harvest extra virgin olive oil makes it SO much better – it adds a simple yet rich and fruity flavour, and creates a slightly creamy texture. I hope you’ll get to try it too!
