Salmon accompanied with blueberry salad.


The bottom picture is Haddock. The top is Salmon. Just make what you prefer!

Ingredients
  • salmon fillets
  • leek
  • frozen vegetables
  • blueberries
  • coconut milk
  • 1/2 cup tomato juice
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
Start by preheating the oven at 300 degrees F (150 Celsius).  Cut your salmon fillets to your desired size and place in your cookware along with 1/2 cup tomato juice, 1 tablespoons olive oil and some cut up leek.

We put half a can coconut milk (condensed, not the watered down stuff) with frozen veggies and a handfull of blueberries in a pot and put it to warm up a little. The coconut milk gets that blue hue from the blueberries as well as a distinct aroma. It's such a good combination.

Meanwhile put the salmon in the pre-heated oven for 15 minutes in 300 degrees F.

If your vegetables are thawed then you wont need to leave them as long in the pot. Be the judge and do the taste test. Get the pot off the burner when you think it tastes best.

And that's it. Simple and fast and absolutely delicious.

Haddock curry cakes.


Hello! Sorry I've been MIA. I know I haven't posted the honey-chicken recipe but I'm afraid I didn't have so much time on my hands.

This is something I had tonight. It was so good I had to share it with you guys!

I know I've posted another haddock recipe. But this is completely different. You are going to love it if you try it out!

Here it is.

Ingredients/Directions:

Haddock cakes
2 haddock fillets

  • cook the haddock in the oven prior to doing anything else. Cook it according to your taste/preference.

1/2 yellow corn mill
2 eggs
1/2 tsp bicarbonate soda
1/2 tsp baking powder
2 tbsp butter
vegetables - chopped

  • Mix all these ingredients listed above into a nice smooth paste. This does not include the haddock! As for the vegetables, it really depends on what you want to put in it. We had some peppers, leek, parsley etc that we chopped up in it. You can put in something totally different!
  • Add the haddock now. Cut it up/flake it and put in on top of the paste. To that, add:
    •  2 tbsp teriyaki sauce
    • 1/2 tbsp yellow curry powder
  • Proceed to mix everything together until you have your ingredients evenly distributed throughout.

Place in the oven at 350 degrees F for 5-10 minutes, just so the eggs are cooked through.




Salad:
frozen vegetables - thawed
2 tbsp teriyaki sauce
a drizzle of olive oil
2 tbsp honey-mustard sauce. OR 1 tbsp mustard and 1 tbsp peanut butter

 With your thawed vegetables, place all the ingredients in a pan or pot of your choice and give them a light stir-frying.

That's it!

So simple. And so delicious! I urge you to give it a try!!
Let me know what you guys think.

Haddock delight.



 This is really simple. Using the leftovers from yesterday's pork dish (aka wine sauce and potatoes and whatever else you may have), we added 4 small haddock fillets in our crock-pot along with some vegetables and tandoori powder. Let it cook for 4-6 hours, turn it on high until it warms up and then back to low.

For the rice, we cooked it (1.5 cups) separately while we lightly fried one red pepper, one yellow pepper and about 10 thin asparagus chopped up.


After frying the vegetables for a minute or two, we mixed 2 tablespoons of soysauce and 1 tablespoon unrefined, raw brown sugar and stirred it together. Add a few tablespoons of the rice into the soy sauce mixture and continue stir-frying until it gets covered well.

Add that soy sauce/rice mixture into the rest of the rice and mix.


That's it, you're done! Take a look at more photos. I hope you enjoyed this, give it a try and let me know what you think :)

Haddock Patties with lemon

Today we are making Haddock Patties. I'll start off with a photo of the final product.
Like what you see?

It's garnished with apple-cranberry sauce on top, with veggies all around it.

This is quite different from any of the recent recipes I've put up but it is really tasty. I usually am not a big fan of haddock. I don't like how it tastes and I absolutely do NOT like fish and chips. In this case, the bland taste of the haddock is overpowered by the lemony taste and the mustard we put it. It turned out really good.



Ingredients for 2 patties
  • juice from one lemon
  • 4 small Haddock fillets
  • 1 tablespoon black sesame
  • 3 tablespoons apple-cranberry sauce
  • 1 tablespoon mustard
  • 3 tablespoons glutinous rice-flour - will be used as a thickening agent
  • 2 servings of frozen vegetables of your choice - thawed
 Instructions
Place the haddock fillets in a pot with the lemon juice. Put it over a medium heat and cook it for 30 minutes.

After it's cooked, mash it up, making sure the haddock absorbs and mixes with the lemon. Add the mustard, black sesame, apple sauce (counter-balancing the lemon) and rice flour and continue mashing it up.

When it's mixed together to your liking, give your mixture shape, by forming it into a patty
.
Here's our patty, garnished with apple-cranberry sauce on top.

Add your thawed vegetables (warm them up first! I warmed them up for 10 minutes) in your plate and you're ready!


Hope you like it and enjoy it guys.

Thanks for reading!
