No hob

[lastqueenofscotland]

I’m house/pet sittin for a lovely lady for 2 weeks soon and she’s let me know the hob in her flat doesn’t work. So I’ll have an oven and a microwave.
I’m a veggie and just looking for some good veggie tray bake ideas as I tend to make a lot of stir fry/rice based dishes which will be harder!

You can do rice in the microwave. Do you have a slow cooker you could take? You can throw rice/pasta in at the end.

No slow cooker!

This white bean gratin is quick, easy and doesn't require a hob. Recipe serves four but can easily be halved. www.amuse-your-bouche.com/rich-tomatoey-white-bean-gratin/
This is another bean gratin but with different flavours. Again, easily halved. www.foodandwine.com/recipes/roasted-leek-and-white-bean-gratin

Eat more couscous - doesn't need cooking, just boiling water from the kettle

I'm a fan of big tray bakes of roasted veg (tomatoes, peppers and onions as standard usually but will add butternut or aubergine) with olive oil, garlic and chilli. Eaten on couscous with goats cheese.

Stuffed peppers? we stuff ours with rice (use the rice that comes in bags and can be microwaved. I don't usually microwave it first if stuffing peppers), raisins, pine nuts, cinnamon and chunks of halloumi cheese. Could also try stuffed tomatoes/ courgettes/ mushrooms/ butternut with preferred flavourings. Ricotta and spinach, topped with parmesan is nice in butternut. Mushrooms work well with any kind of cheese I think.

I'm not 100% sure of this one because I haven't done it in a while but I think it was roasted aubergine then at end mixed with tahini, yoghurt and lemon juice. Might not be substantial enough for a main meal.

Buy, or have them buy you, a 13A plug-in one-ring induction hob. They're about thirty quid.

Job done.

Does she have a bbq? If not most things can be done in the oven. Haloumi and veg skewers.
Stuffed mushrooms
Could you brown off some veg at home? mushrooms, onions, courgettes etc then freeze and take with you so they could be added to things and cooked through in the oven?
