I picked up a lump of Hake while travelling home. Beautiful meaty firm fish. Dinner was a fish stew - onions and garlic, crushed coriander and fennel seeds, saffron, a touch of chilli, bay, oregano, white wine, tomato, and orange juice. I boned out the fish, leaving the skin on, poached it in the stew. Boiled a heap of jersey royals and added them to the stew to steep in that delicious broth. A fist full of parsley finishes the dish.

Mission style burritos with tumeric rice, black and pinto beans, and chicken marinated in lime, adobo, chipotle and anchos, served with sour cream and chipotle salsa and salsa verde...

Just for the record, it appears that chipotles in adobo sauce make absolutely everything better...

And that's why I wanted them on the shopping list. I'll be cooking it before the week's out, I'm 2 weeks behind at the minute but I'll be catching up.
