The original recipe called for leeks instead of onions, but I was too lazy to go to the shops so I had to make do with what I had already.

1 small onion, sliced
1 lemon
2 salmon fillets (or one big enough for two people)
1/8 cup (30ml) of white wine
1 tbps fresh dill, chopped (or 1 […]
The quantities are a bit vague I’m afraid - I didn’t realised how good it was until I started eating it, so I didn’t note down how much of everything I used. The exact amounts aren’t that important anyway - you can experiment with whatever ingredients you have to hand; the essense of this […]
I got this from a member of the SA forums and made it a while ago, and it’s a really tasty fusion of Mexican and Italian ingredients. Apologies to Brits for the measurements being in cups, but there’s a link to a measurement conversion calculator in the sidebar if you don’t have the right […]

This is really good, but the best thing is how quick & easy it is to make (ha, I sound like a TV chef). Once you’ve done all the preperation (chopping vegetables, etc) it only takes about 7-8 minutes to cook. Also, it seemed weird that you don’t use any garlic or ginger, […]
I got this one from a recipe leaflet from the supermarket round the corner. Kedgeree is a traditional British dish that was inspired by a similar dish eaten in India. It’s like a smoked fish risotto.
