Ingredients

4 hake fillets

1 green pepper

1 can of Tomatoe puree

1 onion

1 block of Feta cheese per  fish parcel

Make 4 individual foil parcels to cover the fish fillets. Cut up the green pepper into bite size pieces. Place a fish fillet on each one of the four  foil parcels. Cover it with some tomatoe puree, onion and green pepper.  Put in 1 block of feta cheese into the parcel with the fish and other ingredients.  Close the parcel bake in the oven at 180 degrees Centigrade for 30 minutes.  Meanwhile boil some rice.  When the fish is cooked place the rice on a plate with the fish in foil.  Bon appeti.

This week's selected recipe

want to cook it too?

Hamburgers that are really easy to make?

This week's recipe is from a children's cookbook again, but this is the last time our week's recipe will be from a children's cookbook!  They have such easy to make recipes in children's cookbooks?They are perfect for busy adults to make too, not too taxing!

Saucepan Spaghetti

This dish was wonderful!  It is really easy to make (perhaps because it is from a children's recepie book?

It tastes great too. Just two tweeks to this recipe, I recommend
-only put the grated cheese on the dish when plated
-reduce the liquid content
use it, or not!

Cheers
Dave

This week's Dish

Really easy to make and delicious too!

Last night's sweet and sour beef

The sweet and sour beef was delicious.  The table's settings that came in the take out for two box were great also, chopsticks, paper with hororscopes, placemats and lanterns

Tonight is the night!

I found this little kit which my sister, Helen, bought for me years ago in Germany, in my drawer the other day.

It has recipes, 2 chopsticks, fortunes for cookies and 2 mini lanterns in the box.  I will be using some of these things tonight when I cook the sweet and sour beef recipe tonight!

Cheers Dave

I am cooking the sweet and sour beef recipe, tomorrow 29 June  now, and not today 28 June as I ate a delicious curry last night, and there was some left over, which I ate for lunch.  Only one big meal a day as it is the healthier option!

Both recipes are delicious - they are from a local Newpaper can't remember which one it was!
