Seafood Salad Supper

Oooh, yes, a seafood salad. I can't remember which night we had this, but it was sometime this week, maybe Tuesday. I put some mixed seafood together with onions, veg and salad in a marinade of lemon juice, garlic and olive oil and we had it on a bed of leaves. Nice and colourful.

Boxing Day lunch

This was a 'light' (hehe) Boxing Day lunch, in anticipation of this evening's turkey curry. It's a massive platter of seafood salad - and no, this wasn't all for me - it fed six people, with seconds. The salad contained romaine lettuce and mixed, locally grown salad leaves, cucumber, tomato, avocado, a few sundried tomatoes and marinated garlic cloves, smoked trout and smoked mussels from the local farmers' market and tuna and was served with wedges of lemon and mum's homemade bread rolls.

It's twenty to five and I'm still stuffed and have no idea how I'm going to find the space for some of my brother's turkey curry tonight. Let's hope it's a late one.

Seafood salad

So, so tasty. A seafood selection (baby octopus, squid, prawns, cuttlefish, mussels) marinated in lemon juice, garlic, extra-virgin olive oil, a pinch of sugar, crushed chillies, Provencal herbs and seasoning, with half a red onion, lots of tomatoes, a few olives and a yellow pepper, all diced finely... just lovely, especially with some garlic bread - a great Saturday lunch. Shame about the breath though.
