Burt Blank if I’m not wrong, in Croazia you have special meat skewers called “Cevapcicj”or something like that? I still remember how much fab they were when I’ve been to Croazia many years ago

Very nice, I love the combo watermelon and cheese. Not tried it with Brie cheese yet, I usually prepare this salad with Feta, mint and aceto balsamico.
A new combo to try

Mustard oil? Do you buy or make yourself? I've never seen it here.

Brie was the only cheese I had - feta and mint sounds lovely.

Tuna and Aubergines Sauce

...and I'd never thought of tuna with aubergine!

I buy it - its banned in the USA I believe. Here, there is an edible mustard oil sold. Its a mix of mustard oil and veg oil so that the levels of erucic acid is safe. Its not easy to come by. I don't use it very often.

What's the flavor like? Is it mustardy?

I just made salsa-guac to go on my nachos later. The nachos consist of corn tortilla rounds, jalapenos, sour cream, sliced turkey, Gouda cheese, and a bit of bacon.
