Thread: Dinner

^ How rude, but true I guess.

I'm not a professional cook.

It looks great but cant get my heed around why you need a TIN of norwegian salmon?

It was from Tesco in the UK!

Have you seen the price of tinned salmon in Villa Market? That's if they even have it.

It's like finding hen's teeth in Thailand.

In more ways than one…

^ I miss his braised oxtail and his soups, end of. Which reminds me, I must get to the market tomorrow so I can raise the standard of this thread.

And I found out it was 'Randie', not 'Randy'.

Tough crowd Mendy. I for one think its one of your better efforts.

Funnily enough a small tin of that Tesco wild red salmon fell in my pocket the other day after noticing the £4.25 price tag.

I've been wondering what to do with it and would love to hear your recipe

How many fishcakes will I get outta this...

Doesn't look bad.

Stumpy is a bit picky with food that doesn't look and taste like charcoal.


The beans/fish cake fusion might be taking the artistic licence a bit too far though.

The right quiz answer would be: None

Hmmm. He did mention peas

Get mrs Dill to make some Thai fishcakes and sit back and relax

Absolutely not true. I do up various types of salads 2 or 3 times a week, Tacos the other day, grilled salmon with fresh veggies, various Thai dishes and of course a nice cut of beef or a pork chop off the grill with taters and veggies.

That said though, I have never seen " Green colored " fish or crab cakes and never ( until Mendys pic) have I seen them served with runny beans.

OK, assuming that you're not just mocking me, I'll tell you...

Firstly, you should get the pink salmon, it's half the price of the red and tastes the same in a fishcake. And I got eight fishcakes out of one small tin so we can enjoy another fishcake meal later in the week. They were a bit potatoey though.

Make mashed potato, add the salmon (after straining) and knead all together with an egg or two. At this point you can add extras such as leftover mashed up peas, sprouts and carrots (yes Stumpy, that is where the green colour came from). Season to taste and then divide into balls and roll in breadcrumbs. If you have time you can then leave in the fridge for a while to firm up a bit, but that's a step I can rarely fit in.

Then lightly fry until golden brown!

It's a versatile recipe and if you fancy tuna fishcakes, simply exchange the tin of salmon for a tin of tuna. If you have some leftover lamb, chop or mince and add to the potato and you have lamb rissoles. Etc etc.

Sort of like a Bubble n squeek ? But with salmon, i reckon that would be an instant hit with the nippers, gonna give that a go. Thanks easy peasy to, not enen me or chitty could fuck that up?

Took the wife out for some Korean food last night (and it wasn't even her birthday...) - t'was ok. Total cost was about US$10, so very affordable for Korea.





It's the traditional hangover food: Haejang-guk - Wikipedia

So true.

The banchan looks pretty scarce. Did you munch on the peppers?

She's good

I did some with corned beef, which I thought were superb, but the wife didn't like them because they didn't pair well with rice.
