Tomato Keftedes


In 1967, I was on the Exeter University coach on the Comex trip to India. We were a motley group. Students from Exeter, Reading, teaching training colleges and apprentices from Rolls Royce. The adventures we had were enough to bond us all for the rest of our lives.
I was going to UEA later that year and  had a last minute place thanks to my friend Margaret. My role on the journey was cook!
We meet every two years and this year the reunion is being held by Dave Wall at Stanton Drew. Four year ago, we had hosted it and I made a mound of these tomato keftedes to pass around before sitting down for lunch outside.

Keftedes are also delicious when coriander is used in place of mint and a heaped teaspoon of sumac added.
