My diary - From the beginning

Monkfish and parma ham is my signature dish.

YTou take a whole monkfish fillet - butterfly it.
Then put it to one side.
You take some parsley, some dill and the rind of a lemon and you make a paste by adding some olive oil.
Spread that inbetween the monkfish fillet so its like a sandwich.
Wrap the fillet with the stuffing in parma ham.
Put it in a hot pan for 30 seconds each side to seal it.
Then lay it on foil and seal all around the edges on the foil, leaving a gap at the top to pour in 200 mls of white wine.
Seal the foil and put in the oven for 30-40 minutes.
It steams/poaches/bakes.
Let it rest for 10 minutes.
Slice it like a joint of meat and serve with asparagus and new potatoes.

You're welcome.

Im grateful, but these pumpkin and butternut suggestions are crap.

I want inspiration, I want flavours, I wait to be seduced by the soup.
I want monkfish and parma ham soup, I want beef and mustard soup, I want flavours, I want the soup to make me feel alive.

That sounds AMAZING. I've always wanted to try monkfish but I've never seen it on sale anywhere.

Lucky I'm eating my cottage pie or I'd be drooling.
 
Not much to report.
I've moved my record player from upstairs to downstairs.
I got a parcel of some new John Lennon vinyl.
I've cleaned the windows - the best ever!
They are sparkling!
I've been out and walked a couple of miles - the longest since the op. Nackered when I got in, but it blew the cobwebs off! Same again tomorrow.
Bought some soup for later and had my chocolate milk.
No pain at all, all scars are healed and I'm still not hungry at all.
So that's Saturday so far.

What the hell are you doing????
 
Second day of mush post-fill. Had a visit from an ex this morning who made very free with the compliments (he's not seen me since a fortnight post-op), so a happy morning.
Now vegging out watching crappy telly, will go for a swim later on. Out tonight for a mate's birthday, just in the mood to go dancing too:)

Enjoy your day!
