NOTES ON COOKING WITH PLAICE AND #SEAFOODWEEK

Plaice is a mild flavoured white fish with a good texture, perfect for grilling, frying, goujons, poaching, steaming and rolling and stuffing. It also makes for a rather fantastic curry, but feel free to replace this white fish with any other if you can’t source it.

Ask your fishmonger to skin your plaice fillets for you, although this isn’t absolutely needed. The underside of the plaice is white with a very tender flesh which can be eaten.

This week, from the 5th-12th of October, is Seafood Week, created to help inspire us to eat more fish. Goverment guidelines recommend we eat at least two portions of fish per week as part of a healthy, balanced diet. Search for the #SeafoodWeek hashtag on Twitter and Facebook to see what people are sharing, and visit the Fish is the Dish website for information on the different species of fish and recipe inspiration. They’ve also got some fab giveaways to win £250 worth of supermarket vouchers and 50 Seafood Week Bundles!

This is the second seafood recipe I have shared this Seafood Week. The first was a rather delicious breakfast smoked haddock recipe.

    I don’t think I’ve ever had a fish curry before as I am only just starting to try new curries and mainly sticking to chicken at the moment x

Welcome to Elizabeth’s Kitchen Diary, Scotland’s most northerly award-winning food blog.

I’m based in the wild and remote Shetland Islands, where I’ve been sharing my adventure-fuelling recipes since 2011.

As seen on Shetland: Scotland’s Wondrous Isles on Channel 5 and Made of Here – A road trip for the ages through television on the BBC.

“Never underestimate the power of your own story. Life may have taken unexpected turns, but it’s never too late to weave new threads of adventure into your tapestry. Keep spinning those yarns, my friend.
