Cod with a Salsa Twist

I’m trying to eat more fish, at least once a week. It’s tasty, easy to cook, healthy and what’s even better; it lends itself to versatility. You can be as creative as you want with toppings, crusts and sauces. I just wish it wasn’t so darn expensive. At least in the Netherlands it is. So, I tend to play it safe when cooking fish. But there’s one combination that’s simply…

    Steamed Cod, Champ and Mustard Sauce

    This recipe is more like a mix & match of some of my favorite recipes. Here’s how it’s built up: I like to steam fish. It’s one of the lightest and healthiest ways of cooking fish, but that’s not why it’s my preferred method: the fish holds its natural flavor when cooked like this. That’s a big plus to me. The mash is an Irish recipe called Champ. Mashed potatoes…

      Cod with Pesto and Tomato

      I’m all for crazy recipes. Going wild with cooking techniques, combining unusual flavors to try to come up with that one fun recipe is a trip in and of itself. With one big exception; fish. I’m a fish purist. Fresh, good-quality fish doesn’t need adornment. It doesn’t need a truckload of ingredients and flavors because a good piece of fish, just like a good steak, stands on its own. You…

          Kay’s Fish Pie

            As far as I know—and I could be dead wrong about this—a Fish Pie is traditionally a British dish. I think we just blatantly stole it from them. Like their Sheperd’s pie. And lots of other stuff we’ll never give back. This is one of those family recipes that’s a food trip down memory lane to me. It’s also the kind of food I really like to share on here,…

              Special request posting. I was asked to shoot a low-carb friendly recipe that requires little work, and only uses simple ingredients. Whew, take away their carbs and they become real demanding, I tell you! I’m happy to oblige, though. This is easy as it gets! Here’s a recipe I bumped into about 5 years ago—when I was an avid low-carber myself—and I’ve been eating it ever since. Mind you, it’s…
