PINOCCHIO OF THE SEA



No lies, the swordfish is one of the fastest fish in the sea.
It has very few predators due to its speed and slashing beak.
Well that is, apart from the Mako shark and the Island Deli fisherman.

I have never cooked swordfish before but thanks to Jamie O I had a little help.

Grilled swordfish steaks with roasted baby tomatoes, garlic, lemon, capers + parsley.

Season steaks with salt + pepper.
Drizzle with olive oil and grill.
Roast baby tomatoes with garlic. When almost done add capers + squeeze of lemon juice. Cook for a few minutes.
Add parsley.
Spoon mixture over each steak.

Fennel Mash.
I'm a big fan of a rough mash. Boil potatoes with their skins, mash, add butter, salt and plain joghurt. A healthier more rustic version. For this recipe boil the fennel bulbs with the potatoes and mash together. Add butter, salt and either milk, cream or joghurt, whichever you prefer.
