Paved Area In The Ness Complex….
Paving – as is needed anywhere where a lot of folk gather in wetter climes……

Waste not…
And how creative was Mike today…?
Today, I have mainly been creative with left-overs – some mashed potato, a mélange of vegetables, and a small piece of a vegan Kyiv (mushroomy substance, breadcrumbs and garlicky-buttery-stuff). Excess mashed potato is always a good resource for patties, fish-cakes and the like. This time it was fish-cakes. I put a medium-sized haddock fillet in a buttered, lidded oven dish, and placed this in the oven at 200°C for about 15 minutes until the fish was white and flaky. There was a little buttery/fishy juice left in the dish - too wet for the fish cakes, but too good to waste, so I drank it!
The flaked fish was then mixed with the left-over mash together with the Kyiv, chopped-up very small, parsley and a light seasoning of salt and ground black pepper. This mixture was then shaped into four patties, placed on a greased oven tray and baked for about 15 minutes (200°C again), turning once, until heated through and slightly crisped on the outside. The patties were then finished off in a frying pan over a high heat to brown on both sides. Meanwhile, the vegetable mixture (peas, cabbage, green beans, carrots and sweetcorn) was steamed in a colander to heat through. A little bit of tomato ketchup on the fish-cakes, a bit of marge and salt on the veg – a really nice, light tea, appealing to our frugal hearts!
