Fish Finger and Srirachi Sandwiches (2)

Im always looking for new ways to serve fish fingers so was very pleased to find this simple recipe from Lara Lee in The Guardian, My husband is vegetarian but will very occasionally eat fish, as long as it is cod, covered in batter or breadcrumbs and covered with something to mask the fishy taste….I used sourdough bread in this and didnt bother to remove the crusts. DElicious, if messy to eat and impossible to get a good picture!

Tuna Fishcakes (4)

A tasty, quick ands easy supper. If you can, use tinned Spanish tuna, but any tinned tuna in olive oil will work. The recipe is from ” Lobster and Chips ” by Trish Hilferty- one of my favourite books on fish cookery over many years. Make sure you have some tomato ketchup to offer alongside.

Sybil Kapoor’s Kedgeree (4)

A favourite version of kedgeree that I have been trying to relocate the recipe for for some years. Traditionally the rice and fish would be mixed together and the dish served for breakfast, but this version is best served for lunch or supper accompanied by plenty of white basmati rice. The recipe is from ” Modern British Food” by Sybil Kapoor.

Spinach and Turmeric Fish Curry (4)

A delicious curry from ” Dominique’s Kitchen” by Dominique Woolf. You can omit the chilli for a child friendly version. You can add a few prawns as well if you like, or use them instead of the fish. Serve with rice or rotis.

Tuna with Sicilian Potato Salad (4)

I found this recipe for Tuna in ” Lobster & Chips” by Trish Hilferty, one of my go to fish cookbooks. She inherited it from Tom Norrington Davis and they both worked at the renowned Eagle in London. You need to use really fesh tuna and waxy potatoes such as Charlotte. The tuna could be replaced with swordfish or other robust meaty fish. The tuna will be medium rare which is the best way to eat it, but if you prefer cook it for a little longer.

Wild Salmon with Jersey Royals and Watercress (4)

An early summer favourite from ” Lobster and Chips” by Trish Hilferty. The first wild salmon usually becomes available in early June, briefly overlapping with the time of year when smaller Jersey Royals are still available. Sea Trout or organic salmon can be used as an alternative, but I urge you not to use farmed salmon.
