Jersey Royals

[Stravaig]

As I'm sure you gardeners know - I'm just a cook - JRs are currently in season. We got a lovely filleted turbot from our fishmonger - we've been up and down like a tart's knickers (Scotland to Kent and back) - and I wondered about making posh fish and chips. But one wouldn't usually make chips with a waxy potato. Well, I wouldn't anyway but I found a nice recipe, so I thought I'd give it a go.

But then I found this!

Now we're cooking with gas.

Husband is back down in Kent again. I'm in Scotland. Expecting him home this evening. Tonight's dinner will be turbot, crispy JRs with curry leaves and I might even make a makhani sauce.

Cooking tip: makhani is a so-called butter sauce, ie like you get with butter chicken. Ainsley Harriot has a cheat's version in his 'Gourmet Express'. Basically you just blat some stuff, eg turmeric, fresh coriander, red chilli, etc, into double cream. It can be delicious. Don't forget a squeeze of lime at the last minute to lift it with a bit of acidity. Enjoy.
