I have a hankering for some grilled skirt steak, marinated in garlic and lemon. To that I would add a plate of roasted vegetables, eggplant, carrots, tomatoes, peppers and onions, along with lesser starches. A huge salad will accompany the meal, dressed in lemon, olive oil, garlic and dill, and sprinkled with toasted almonds. There would be side dishes of a collection of nibbles, pickles and olives and cruditees, and of course, fresh bread, perhaps my special challah with cinnamon, raisins and sesame. I can taste it now. Dessert? Ice cream is always nice. There would be wine, of course, or beer, depending on taste, and after-dinner coffee or tea. Simple, but tasty and satisfying.
This does not conform exactly to a Mediterranean menu, but no matter.
