Fish, Chips, Peas and Caper Sauce

Fish, Chips, Peas and Caper Sauce

OK it’s not quite conventional, but what exactly did you expect from us? Sue’s not a fan of flaky fish generally. But we’ve discovered that we are both very keen on Ray Wings. So when they appear with a Yellow Sticker, all is good!

Nobody needs a recipe for flouring and frying fish I hope? Chips? A but the sauce was something else!

Caper Sauce Ingredients:-

2 Spring Onion whites, finely chopped
½ Tsp of Crispy Cuttlefish and Chilli Paste
2 Cloves of Garlic, minced
2 Tsp of Capers, slightly crushed
Juice of 1 & ½ Lemons
1 Tsp Dried Parsley
1 Tsp Dijon Mustard
Butter
Salt & Pepper

Method:-

(1) Gently fry the Spring Onions in Butter until translucent.
(2) Add the Garlic and fry gently for a couple more minutes.
(3) Reserve a little Butter and add the remaining ingredients except the Parsley.
(4) Simmer over a low heat for a couple of minutes.
(5) Stir in the remaining Butter and Parsley  and drizzle over the fish.

The Crispy Cuttlefish and Chilli Paste was an impulse buy from a Chinese Supermarket at (We seem to recall) £0.99 But it really packs a punch. We will be buying more when needed. But you only need ½ a teaspoon and this jar has lived in the fridge door for months now…...

Chicken and veg Soup recipe - Eat well on universal credit

Last night we had a roast Chicken dinner, Nothing new there. We generally cook like your granny did. It's cheap, it's good for us and Buster and it's not supplied in a shed lead of plastic. But sometimes we had leftovers.

What do you do with a small box of cooked Veg and Chicken?

Soup - for a rainy day.

Ingredients:-

1 Stock Cube (Or stock from a previous roast)

Left over bits and bobs (Veg and Chicken in this case)

Method:-

(1) Get the blender off the top of the freezer.

(2) Bring the stock cube (Or real stock if you have it) to the boil.

(3) Smash everything up in the blender.

If the Chicken wisn't previously frozen you can pop your soup directly in the freezer. A few herbs and a bit of fresh ground Black Pepper and you've got a meal for the cost of a Stock Cube. So 5p each maybe?
