Roast Capsicum with Feta and Olives

This is a very Greek way to serve capsicums. The best way to eat them is to mash them together with the feta using a fork, and then slap it all on some grilled pita bread. A little Greek music in the background is recommended for the full experience.

Charred Corn with Maple Butter

When I was ten, we travelled to Greece and it was the first time I had corn grilled over the coals, from a street vendor in Athens. I remember that first taste of sweet, chewy, charcoaled sweetcorn and the delight of holding it like a lollipop and nibbling away as we roamed the streets. I remember my sister and I begging Mum for another one whenever we passed the vendors. In later years, I would challenge my kids to a corn race to get them to quickly eat up every niblet and still now, charred corn slathered in a flavoured butter is a barbecue favourite.

When my husband came home one afternoon carrying a little basket of homegrown zucchini and tomatoes from my dad-in-law's garden, I knew I had to put as much care into the recipe choice as he does into his abundant backyard veggie patch. Each year I am amazed at how everything grows to a lush fruitfulness under his hand. It reminds me to take the time and have the patience to nurture something to its full potential.
