Steamed Fish
We have cooked this a couple of times before, once with tuna and once with sea bass and tonight we tried it with cod (Icelandic of course, so as not to make the poor fishies extinct). We marinated the fish in oyster sauce, soy sauce, garlic and black pepper. Then topped it with [...]

Ginger was out tonight, so I selfishly treated myself to some steak. Actually, I’d been to gym on the way home and was really very hungry when I went shopping for dinner afterwards. So steak and mustard mash it was. There was also tenderstem broccoli, but that didn’t make it into the [...]
