My dinner tonight...

[Will]

It's funny I take pictures of nearly every meal I make - but I decided to post it tonight because... well because it was delicious! :D

Fillets of haddock, lightly pan fried in olive oil, then moistened with a knob of butter. A bit of sea salt and pepper and light smattering of paprika. Steamed broccoli and some charlottes with a touch of butter and a sprinkling of chives.

Pan fry the fillets skin side down for about 2 minutes on a relatively hot pan, season, flip for about 20-30secs. Done!

Steaming veggies is easy... I like my broccoli slightly al dente.

anyway here's what you end up with:

I heart fish muchly, I don't bake it foil often, but next time I'm going to get some skate or monkfish and give baking a go.

That looks lovely Will and very healthy too!

I don't have a hob at the moment so I'm craving anything made using frying pan, saucepan or wok :D I also love fish muchly. We had salmon stuffed with garlic, basil and anchovies wrapped in sun-dried tomatoes tonight along with a salad. Back to real food at last!! Nomski

Oh, I meant to say that I've bought some aubergine pesto to put on either fish or chicken at some point. It just seemed like it would be a nice sort of thing to rub into the skin and then oven roast together with some tomatoes, olives and red onions.

It'd be agony not be able ot use my kitchen to it's fullest!!

I hear that aubergine pesto! It seriously rocks! Good tip... I'll have to look into that. :)

I've not tried it before so I'm looking forward to it :)

And yes it is an absolute agony not to be able to use it properly. My dining table has a chopping board, cutlery and a few other bits on, but all my ingredients and herbs/spices are all packed away in boxes. Worktops arrive on 30th July so I should have a hob the following week. I'm also in China for a week between now and then so I've only really got about 10 days left. Cannot WAIT :D I'm very thankful for the new oven though so we can go back to real food again. Just cooking oven only stuff at the moment.

Your dinner looks lovely and yummy Will :) While mine generally tastes ok it never looks "pretty"

Allergies?

[Will]

I'm so gutted for people with allergies :( I don't think I could live without fish in my life or live with an allergy - sucks :(

[Jonny69]

Never used to eat a huge amount of fish but now I can't at all, DANG, I miss it :D

[Will]

Inever used to like cheese till I got told not to eat it... now i have to force myself past the cheese section in tesco :(

[Burble]

I shall be treating myself to a very nice dinner tonight. Having spent 4 days in Germany (which is far from the culinary capital of the world) and had 'dinner' on the plane back last night I'm craving something with flavour!

[Greenlizard0]

I'd be gutted to not be able to eat fish because I really enjoy it. Oh and fish fingers rules.

I'm allergic to chocolate and bananas though which are much tastier :(

[Tak]

Oh and fish fingers rules.

Fish finger and cheese sandwich with ketchup - naughty but very nice :D

[leowyatt]

ketchup??? nah Salad Cream FTW

[Burble]

You're both wrong. Ketchup & mayo ftw!

[Jonny69]

Fish fingers is what I miss the most. 5 fried fish fingers slathered with ketchup in between 2 slices of buttered white bread. Used to love that :D
