Knife Skills


I'm sure like quite a few of you, while you can cook and make things taste great, something that should be a principle skill, like how to be fast and efficient with knives isn't your strongest point?

Well, if it is yours, it sure isn't mine. So I'm looking into Knife Skill courses. So far I can only find the one by Leith's that you have to book for umpteen months before hand. Does any one who reads this know of any other cookery schools, etc where I could learn?

Marinated Monkfish Wrapped in Parma Ham



Ugly customer, ain't he? Luckily monkfish tastes so damn good. As a treat to my newish fiancé, last night, I came up with a recipe for marinated monkfish wrapped in parma ham. I'm in the process of writing a draft out now, so I'll type it up and upload it later for you lovely folks who put up with my fickle posting. Afraid no pictures this time since I didn't have my camera with me. But Hopefully I'll make it again in a few weeks time to show the finished result.

Now my bathroom renovations have finally been completed I'll be back on here more often.
