As we are a little light on entries would it be a good idea to extend the deadline a bit? I'm thinking at least to include Sunday, but maybe an extra week?

I have been moving house, but could get something done over the next few days.
Suits me I've also been really busy and had to wait a couple days for a part of my dish to set in the freezer. wink

Been too busy decorating. frown

Happy to extend it a week again if it will get enough entries. Not much of a competition at the moment.

Likewise I seem to have consumed my Gin flavour ice cream. D'oh!

Might have a re think and do something else.

This is something I have not done before Fish and Beer Battered Chips with Pea Fritters

There is nothing better in the summertime than going to the seaside and having fish and chips so I thought I would do a bit of a twist and batter the chips instead of the fish whilst sitting on the balcony overlooking the ocean.

Initially I was going to do an egg, milk and beer batter and have battered cauliflower but as I started cooking changed the idea


I first boiled the potatoes for a few minutes then fried then in the wok to get then slightly crisp. I added 2 tablespoons of cider vinegar to the beer so rather than add vinegar to to final dish, it was already added. There was a tablesppon of bakig powder in with the flour too.


Back up on the balcony the oil in the wok was re-heated and the BBQ warmed for the tuna. Each chip was dunked in the batter and then dropped in the hot oil.


The remaining batter was poured into the blended pea and mint mix, fored into a pattie and fried until set and brown on the outside.

Assemble all of the above on a plate and eat !


Very good it was too.

Beer battered chips - I thought I'd read it wrong at first!

Looks good though Bob.

I've been slack in the kitchen and not actually cooked anything for weeks.

Damn it! mad
