I'm planning on making Bubble 'n' Squeak for the first time tonight, but I'm also debating on whether or not to do my grocery run today or tomorrow. After shopping I have no interest in cooking that night! Anyway, I have the potatoes baking right now so they can cool (I never have leftover baked spuds) and I might prep all the other ingredients while waiting for the potatoes (and a load of laundry). If I make it today I'll report back later. If I don't make it till tomorrow you'll see it in that thread.
I can't find orange roughy by us. It ain't Lake Erie Perch, but I'll have to look for roughy when we are visiting the kiddos later this year.
they are meant to look & smell like that katers...sheesh,i dunno you young 'uns!!Okay, so today was supposed to be the big Clam Chowder experiment... unfortunately, when I opened the tin of clams I was so repulsed by how they looked (and smelt) I put them straight in the bin! Clams are going on my list of foods I never want to see on my plate!
Don't right know pac. Tell ya what, I'll make sure we leave one small patty and I'll freeze it as a test.Bummer.
That bubble and squeak looks pretty good. Does it freeze well (do you know)?

Well, after all the trials, tribulations and discussions - I give you Crab and Sweetcorn Chowder (sort of) The good news is Ollie liked it and we had two empty dishes! So, undoubtedly not very authentic, but jolly tasty!
good looking plates there chaps!! any chance of popping 'em on food photo's....please!Looks delicious Katy!
Here is my experiment.
let's hope our budding police officer has a stronger stomach when she finds her 1st decomposing tramp in a dumpster eh pac??!!Orange Roughy, it's a fish. Mild, firm white flesh. It must be native to New Zealand because that all I ever see for sale, from NZ.
Sorry to hear about the clams.
We may never know... were they off, or do you just not like clams...
Good plan B though
I like the smell of tinned clams. They don't really smell fishy, more of a sweet smell, like their flavor.
with a piccie as well i trust!!i like b and s made with spuds,onions & sprouts mashed up & fried.eaten with pickled red cabbage or beetroot....heaven!I'm planning on making Bubble 'n' Squeak for the first time tonight,If I make it today I'll report back later. If I don't make it till tomorrow you'll see it in that thread.

that roughy sounds good mate!
When I was a student in North Wales in the late '60s/early '70s, we usually called at the chippy on the way home from the pub. Both were supposed to be out of bounds, along with playing tennis on Sundays and climbing into the hall of residence through your friend's ground floor window because you'd missed curfew and were locked out. The student in charge of lock up (we had to take it in turns) was supposed to report late-comers to our Warden (yes, that was really her title) but she was a lush and by 10pm was usually out for the count.
It could have been worse - it was only a year earlier that they had stopped making students line up for roll call in the common room at curfew time to check you were in. We just had to sign in - there were a lot of forged signatures especially at weekend! Lights out at 10pm would you believe and the rest of the world thought we were living the swinging sixties!
Something went awry and my blackened fish didn't blacken, but it was good nonetheless. Could've sworn the pan was hot enough
