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!

Glamorgan Laver Sausages, eat well on universal credit

We had to hack this recipe to suit dietary needs, it should have had Caerphilly Cheese - but that would not have gone down too well….

Ingredients:-

200g of Breadcrumbs (Gluten free for us)
150g of Lactose free Cheese, grated
1 Large Leek, finely chopped
1 Tsp of Thyme
 ½ Tsp of Mixed Herbs
1 Tsp of Mustard Powder
2 Tbsp of Lactose free Milk
50g of Laverbread
2 Egg Yolks and White separated for the coating
50g of Cornflour for the coating
Salt & Pepper to season

Method:-

(1) Combine all the ingredients except the Egg Whites, Cornflour and enough Breadcrumbs for the coating.
(2) Mix into a thick paste.
(3) Divide the mixture and roll into Sausage shapes.
(4) Coat each one in the Cornflour, coat with Egg Whites, then dredge in Breadcrumbs.
(5) Heat a fryer to 160c.
(6) Fry individually until golden brown and then drain.

To say they actually contain nothing to do with Sausages apart from the basic shape, these were really good. Filling, but good.
