Serve as a starter with rice, on their own, or in mini breadrolls with some slaw as a delicious Asian fish burger.
Herring is an acquired taste if you're not used to herring, but f you like fish and salty flavours, you should give it a go.
By far, this is one of the easiest and most delicous salads you can prepare from leftover grilled salmon, or using those hot-smoked salmon packs.
A delicious combination of flavours makes these pin wheels a perfect finger food for any occasion.
Salmon is one of my favourite fish and in this dish it is transformed into someting really comforting.
While the terrine is easy to make - takes only 4 ingredients, it is big on flavour from the smoked salmon and the already herbed goat's cheese.
Almost 5 ingredient fish fingers - so good, you will never want to go back to store bought fish fingers again!
As the jelly begins to melt, the flavours of masterstock begin to dance in your mouth. Combined with the sweetness of the fish it is one of my favourite (weird but oh so good) food combinations!
A quick, light and delicious dip that will satisfy the tastebuds and make for a nutritious snack.
Have you ever tried barbecued limes? If not, I thoroughly recommend it! They become so smoky and sweet as their juices caramelise on a sizzling-hot barbecue. Deliciousness.
A simple recipe to transform a boring old sashimi into a tasty salad or an impressive h'ordeurve.
Fish en papillote is great fun to eat, it takes care of itself in the oven in around 20 minutes and it's brilliantly non-smelly! Perfect school night dinner and a delicious meal for both grown ups and kids.
These fish rissoles are a great way to enjoy the goodness of fish without the overpowering taste or messing around with whole fillets. Corn or diced capsicum are a great addition to the patty mix - they help mask the fishy taste further and add extra nutrients to the meal. The patties themselves are beautifully crisp on the outside while oh so light and fluffy on the inside!
Melt in your mouth fish fillets served with an Asian greens and organic soba (buckwheat flour) noodle stir fry. Amazingly flavoursome and good for you. The fish was so tender and moist it was hard to plate it up in one piece!
It is great fun to have a make your own pizza night where everyone, kids and grown ups alike, can customise their toppings to what they like. One rule though, make sure that there is at least 2 vegetable ingredients on the pizza. Wholesome and additive free base, sauce and toppings. Top that!
The fish, crisp on the outside but meltingly soft on the inside, goes so well with the combination of sweetness and nutty flavours in the sauce and the silky smooth pasta with its tart but creamy goat's cheese filling.
I think the attribution of the dish to the Greeks, however accurate, comes from the medditteranean feel and simplicity of the flavours: fresh fish combined with a slightly acidic tomato based vegetable topping. Since the dish is normally served cold it is perfect for summer. But when warmed up the flavours become so much more intense and the fish more tender, I'm surprised no one had ever thought of it before!
These simple and delicious goat cheese and salmon crostini are an absolute new breakfast and snack favourite of mine! These mouthwatering sangers combine the flavours of sweet, salty and sour so well I just keep wanting more. They are perfect to take on seaside picnics too.
If you are looking for a dish that’s delicious, good looking, quick and easy to make and doesn’t cost an arm and a leg, this is it! A perfect dinner party meal – trust me your guests won’t be disappointed. And at less than $5 per serve neither will your wallet. The fish is crispy… [Read more…]
Last week I had this uncontrollable need to eat salmon. One day I managed to have it for breakfast, lunch and dinner… And yet the craving continued so rather than having another smoked salmon and cream cheese sandwich, I decided to have a big plate of this scrumptious Mediterranean-style hot-smoked salmon salad. The recipe is… [Read more…]
Quick, hassle free and slightly fancy. Believe it or not, but this recipe was a ‘collaboration’ between me and an 8 year old boy… As we strolled through the supermarket trying to find ingredients to compliment the fish I picked up fresh from the Fish Markets earlier, he suggested I should wrap the fillets in… [Read more…]
The dish ticks all the right boxes. It's quick. It's tasty. And packed full of nutrients, including loads of omega 3 from the fish and the avocado. The salmon is crispy on the outside, while buttery and juicy in the middle - it simply melts in your mouth. The salad is zesty and fresh and can be thrown together in minutes.
Yesterday, we had a bit of a dilemma: what to have for a barbecue dinner? I felt like fish, but not everyone likes it “that much”. Someone else loves beef, but I didn’t really feel like red meat. There was also division between the little people on what to have, fish or lamb. To complicate things further,… [Read more…]
One recipe two dishes: A light and fragrant fish curry // A mild fish laksa. As you have probably realised by now (if not, look here, or here or here), I like to cook dishes that can double as something else. That’s always one less recipe to remember and it’s great for using up all the left over ingredients.… [Read more…]
The following 3 recipes are great, because they can be used 3 ways: as sandwich fillings, as salads and as dips. Chop more coarsely for the salad, or blend in a food processor for the dip. Easy!
It may sound slightly off-putting at first but this dish is delicious, and left overs can be turned into fish burgers! By poaching it in vegetable broth, which is then turned into jelly to seal in the moisture of the fish on the plate, the fish becomes sweet and juicy. Traditionally the dish is served with a… [Read more…]
