Stir Fried Vegetables with Roasted Salmon
Does this look familiar at all? If it does it’ll be because this is basically the same as last night’s dinner, except with salmon instead of chicken. I roasted the salmon in the oven with some garlic, chilli and ginger and stir fried the vegetables seperately in the same sauce of oyster sauce, soy sauce […]

I think summer has arrived. I could be wrong but in the interests of making the most of it while it lasts, Stephen and I barbecued yesterday. We’d been talking to a friend on Friday night about how good barbecued mackerel is so decided to have that, along with some bream. We also had corn, […]
Read More..>>Scallops and Samphire
Yesterday we visited our local farmer’s market and were lucky enough to find samphire. We’ve heard a lot about it recently but haven’t seen it anywhere so we were both really excited to find it at the market. Online recipes were pretty scarce, I found a few risottos but not much else apart from a […]

Tonight we had marinated tuna; it’s ages since I remember cooking tuna. We marinated two tuna steaks in some oil, soy sauce and lime juice with some chopped garlic, chilli and lemongrass. We’d planned to marinate it for one hour but due to some changes of plan it ended up being in it for three […]

Mmmm baked potatoes. They take a long time to do, but they’re worth it. We baked some potatoes, then scooped out the insides and mixed in flaked smoked trout, parsely, grated cheddar, butter and horseradish. Then we put some more grated cheese onto the top and put them under the grill. The result was really […]

This morning, we were set on using up the chorizo in the fridge that we bought back from Barcelona but by the time we got to the supermarket we had decided to make fish pie; funny how that happens. We haven’t made this for a long time, in fact I don’t think it’s featured anywhere […]

It was a warm and sunny day today so we decided to barbecue some fish. Stephen went off to the fishmonger and came back with a bumper bag of prawns, langoustines, sea bass and bream. We started off with the prawns (marinated in onion, garlic, lemon juice and olive oil) and langoustines and some garlic […]
Read More..>>Roast Brown Trout with Roasted Vegetables
Tonight we roasted a couple of brown trout. We stuffed with with a herb and shallot mixture. We started by roasting red pepper, onion, tomatoes and onions for a while and then added the trout for the last half hour along with half a glass of white wine. The result was good, with the juice […]
Read More..>>Scallop Stir-Fry
This is a recipe I found on an old Sainsbury’s Magazine calendar, it’s been in my recipe file for ages but we only got round to making it today. The scallops were fried off then removed from the pan, the shallots, garlic and ginger were then fried before the vegetables (tenderstem brocolli, baby corn and […]
Read More..>>Spaghetti, Prawns and Rocket
We both popped out after work for some social business today, so when we got home we needed something quick and easy for dinner. Kerri bought some prawns on the way home, so we made spaghetti with prawns and rocket. Much like this. Quick and easy and tasty.
