Radish "Cress" experiment

Radish "Cress" experiment

We bough varions seeds to plant in the boxes on our balcony. To our ammusment the Radishes turned out to be real thugs and overwhemed everything else. We had over half a pack of seeds left so I wondered if you could use them in a salad a bit like Mustard Cress.

Well we're still alive! They do have a very strong Radish flavour. Unfortunately they do not stand up well with a DIY vigegarette dressing. So as Sue suggested last night they are probably better just used to add a bit of colour as a micro salad. But I think we'll be growing some more very soon.....

Asian Baked Basa

These Basa fillets were originally priced at £5.36 by had a yellow sticker price of £1.12 So Sue headed to the recipes on Google and came up with this…..

Ingredients:-

3 Basa Fillets
1 Thumb of fresh Ginger, finely sliced
A hand fun of Cashew Nuts, toasted
A hand fun of Laver Seaweed, finely chopped and deep fried
2 Tbsp of Honey
1 Tbsp of Rice Wine Vinegar
2 Tbsp of Soy Sauce (Gluten free for us)
1 Tbsp of Oyster Sauce (Gluten free for us)
300g Butter / Margarine
1 Tbsp of fresh Thai Basil, chopped

Method:-

(1) Combine the Honey, Rice Wine Vinegar, Soy Sauce and Oyster Sauce in a bowl.
(2) Place the Basa fillets on Foil then but dots of Margarine or Butter on the Fish, followed by the sliced Ginger.
(3) Spoon over the Honey mix.
(4) Wrap the Foil around the Fish so none of the liquid can escape.
(5) Place on an oven tray and put in a pre-heated oven at 180c for 20 to 25 minutes.
(6) To serve plate the Fish and pour over the remaining cooking sauce. Sprinkle with the toasted Cashew Nuts and fried Seaweed.

We served ours with Crispy Roasted Asian Potatoes and fried Bok Choy. All very tasty. In fact we’re wondering if we’ll ever really enjoy English food again….
