Swordfish with fresh Ginger & Capers

Swordfish with fresh Ginger & Capers

Another Yellow Sticker gig and to be honest it was a budget breaker at £3 a steak. But we’ve had quite a few meals recently which were on budget and lasted two days. So…..

Ingredients:-

2 Swordfish Steaks
1 Tbsp of Fish Sauce
A squeeze of Lemon Juice
1 Tbsp of Capers
½ Tsp of Chilli Flakes
1 Thumb of fresh Ginger, minced (We grew of own and have miles of it!)
2 Cloves of Garlic, minced
A Knob of Butter (Margarine we’ve not had real Butter in the place for quite some time….)
1 Tbsp of Fresh Parsley (Out Parsley plant is looking a bit skinheaded!)
½ Tbsp Lemon Zest
Salt & Pepper to season
Olive Oil to fry

Method:-

(1) Marinade the Swordfish in the Olive Oil, Fish Sauce and Salt & Pepper for 20 minutes.
(2) Melt the Butter / Margarine in a frying pan.
(3) Add  all the other ingredient to a bowl and mix well.
(4) Fry the fish steaks for 2 minutes on one side.
(5) Place in a pre heated oven at 180c.
(6) Add the remaining ingredients to the melted Butter / Margarine and allow to simmer and reduce.
(7) Pour the reduced sauce over the Swordfish before serving.

We simply has New Potatoes, Corn and Broccoli with ours and it was a real treat!

Portable Grub

We often make a little too much filling for various dishes. Sue has a commercial kitchen habit of keeping margarine pots which inevitably end up in the freezer with various bits & bobs in them.  Gluten free ‘Lazy Pastry’ was on offer a few days ago, so we had a bit of a clearout and made some portable grub….

The Sausage Rolls and Scotch Eggs were made from a pack of 8 Sausages which were 93p

The Pasties had Quesadilla Filling (Recipe here) in some and Vietnamese Pork Filling (Recipe here) in others.

All very tasty, the only slight problem was that we didn’t make which Pasty was which so it was pot luck!
