GIDEON SE SPRINGER-VISKOEKIES
Ek het vanaand die lekkerste viskoekies ooit gebak.Dit was regtig heerlik! Ek het van gisteraand se oorskiet gebraaide springervis gebruik.
400 g gebraaide, gevlokte vis
1/2 koppie smash aartappels (gaar)
1 klein tot medium ui, gerasper
15 ml pietersielie, fyngekap
2 huisies knoffel, gekerf
5 ml suurlemoensap
5 ml bakpoeier
1 klein eier, effe geklits
meel om viskoekies in te rol
olie vir vlakbraai

Meng al die bestanddele goed en maak nie te groot balletjies wat effe platgedruk is en rol in die meel. Plaas in die koelkas vir omtrent ‘n halfuur. Bak in vlak olie omtrent 5 minute aan ‘n kant tot goudbruin. Plaas op dreineerpapier om van die oortollige olie ontslae te raak. Ek het dit saam met sweet chilliesous geniet en was dit nou lekker. Baaaaaie lekkerder as blikkie viskoekies, gaan dit beslis weer doen.

Nota: Ekt vanaand vir ons viskoekies gebak, maar ipv die springer vis het ek gebraaide snoek gebruik en was heerlik!

POTATO AND TUNA-A-LA-KING BAKE
Yesterday I had no idea what to make for supper….stood in front of the cupboard and took things out and then came up with the following (my own recipe) – Unfortunately by the time I remembered to take a photo it was all gone, will definitely make again and share a photo.
4 potatoes peeled and sliced
2 tins tuna
1 packet Royco Chicken-a-la king sauce
1/2 packet Mushroom soup powder
1 small packet chunky frozen vegetables
600 ml milk
Cheese
Salt and pepper

Boil potatoes until soft
While potatoes are boiling place milk, chicken-a-la-king sauce and mushroom soup powder in bowl and microwave (stirring occassionaly) until thickens.
Add tuna,  salt and pepper to the sauce and mix through
Once potatoes are soft:
In an ovenproof dish layer potatoes, then half the tuna mixture then the packet of vegetables,  then another layer of potatoes and then tuna.
Sprinkle grate cheese over the top and bake until cheese is lightly brown.
I served it on basmati rice.

SPRINGERVIS OP DIE KOLE
Krap die skubbe af, vlek dit en bedek die vis met growwe sout vir 3 tot 4 uur. Spoel die vis af en druk dit droog met kombuis papier.
Braai dit op redelike warm kole vir ‘n paar minute, met die velkant na bo wat met knoffelbotter gesmeer word. Draai die vis om en smeer met baie knoffelbotter. Braai op die velkant oor matige kole vir ongeveer 20 minute. Haal van die rooster af en bedruip met ‘n bietjie suurlemoensap. Bedien dadelik.

LESDEE’S PICKLED FISH
500 g frozen hake fillets
75 g chilli-bite mix powder
Canola or sunflower oil
1 large onion, sliced into half-rings
3 whole cloves
5 ml curry powder
5 ml ground coriander
2 lemon leaves, torn
50 ml whole apricot jam
250 ml white vinegar
125 ml water
2 ml turmeric
40 ml brown sugar
2 ml ginger and garlic paste
salt to taste
60 ml golden sultanas

Partially thaw the fish, and roll each piece in the chilli-bite mix powder until well coated. Place into a pan of hot shallow oil and fry on both sides until attractively browned – about 5 minutes.
Remove with a slotted spoon and set aside. Do not be in a hurry to turn the cooking pieces over – wait until they cook sufficiently to lift away from the pan base themselves, to make lifting and turning easy without breaking the coating.
Gently fry half the onion slices in a little oil. Add the cloves, curry powder, coriander, lemon leaves and jam. Stir in the vinegar, water, turmeric, sugar, ginger and garlic paste, and the remaining onion slices. Simmer until the liquid reduces significantly.
Add the sultanas and check flavour for salt.
Pour this pickling sauce over the cooked fish. Cool completely before covering and refrigerating.
Changes:
I rolled my fish in a mixture of cake flour & maziena instead of the chilli bite mix & never added the sultanas.
