just looking in before bed.

herbie roasted spuds,
baked beans,
and a mug of pop.

Spuds and beans?
Do you ever eat a nice steak or bit of fish...or green vegetables?

haven't eaten steak for years.
fish scares the shit out of me.
and up until a few weeks ago,
i ate fresh veg every weekend.
lots of veg.
i can't be bothered with veggies right now.
so it's chips or jacket spuds with baked beans or tinned tomatoes.

happy days.

i used to love smoked mackerel.
but i couldn't enjoy it because it was always cold before i'd eaten it.

tell you what,
monkfish;
white,
juicy,
big chunky flakes o' flesh,
but a bit bland.

any suggestions on spicing it up?

i've just noticed that it's pissing down.

anyway,
monkfish,
i've thought about mixing a few herbs with garlic paste,
coating the fish with it,
and baking it.

any idea how long for?
or what gas-mark?

Just dab butter on the fish, sprinkle garlic powder on it, cover with clingfilm, pierce the clingfilm in about 6 places then put it in the microwave on medium for about 10 minutes.

i was thinking more along the lines of,
virgin olive oil,
enfused with herbs and garlic,
smeared over the top,
wrapped in foil,
and in the gas oven.

but it's too expensive to fuck up.

I do ALL my fish with the microwave and clingfilm method....my son's mate who was a chef at the time showed me. Works a fucking treat and tastes better than oven cooked.

might just give that a try.

Monkfish?
