Fish & Chips

Fish & Chips recipe, eat well on universal credit

Fish & Chips was once an inexpensive treat to eat in the evening as supper, or maybe on the way home from the pub. Pubs? You remember those, maybe?

I passed a chippy last week in an area of York where I’d not expect prices to be excessive. £7.20 for Fish and Chips to take out. Just Fish & Chips, nothing else……

You can do better at home folks at half the price…..

This Pollock fillet was £3.29 with a Yellow Sticker on it. It was skinned and I only found two small bones.

Ingredients for the Gluten free Batter:-

2 Eggs, whisked
Cornflour
Turmeric Just a bit to add some colour
Garlic Salt
Onion Salt
Fresh ground Black Pepper
Soda Water

Method:-

(1) Coat the Fish (and Onion rings if you adding them) in Cornflour.
(2) Preheat the fryer to 170c.
(3) Dunk in the batter mix and fry until they float.

We served ours with Peas, Onion Rings, hand cut Chips, Tartar Sauce and a slice of Lemon. Honestly this was much better than a take-out and cost less than half the price.

Disaster Aversion Culturally Disrespectful Tapas!

A few days ago I commented that we don't like things going to waste. I think I doomed us.
 
We have been gifted two fridges, which is great as we don't have a freezer we've been able to use the freezer boxes to store left-overs when we cook too much and the odd “Special Offer” I come across in the supermarkets. But then..... One of the fridges went a little mad the other evening and froze everything. So if it want's to be a freezer that's cool ( Well colder then cool actually! ) but frozen Carrots, Celeriac, salad etc. is not a great gig when it thaws out. So we had to swap the fridges around, accept that one is now pretending to be a freezer and use up everything we could salvage this evening.
 
This was the unholy but very tasty result......
 
 
 
Oh a bit of dressed salad!
