New Years Dinner

[slinky.kate]

what are you having,i think I am having the traditional steak pie

[humbersloop]

hard boiled eggs, one each-ish, keep them soft centred, quartered; cooked long grain or basmati rice; undyed smoked haddock, poached in whole cream milk with butter, ground black pepper and bay leaf for 6-8 mins, drained

to a warm serving dish, flake fish into the rice, add plenty of chopped fresh parsley and some cooking liquor from the fish just so it nestles, foil on top, into a warm oven for ten minutes, serve with the eggs and some more chopped parsley and coriander leaves as garnish

well, I was going to celebrate my appearance on the New Year Honours list but by some clerical error I seem to have been left off it. So I shall probably be devouring wormwood and gall.

bugger, hang on - riffles through gall recipes..

Queenie wants something else this year so no steak and sausage pie, I have lovely piece of brisket which we will pot roast, with lots of veggies, and Yorkshire pudding. We'll do a trifle for pudding
