An updated version of the traditional English Classic: Fish & Chips
Fish and chips, another traditional English classic that is so often bland. Here's an idea to keep the concept, as it works so well, but updated to accomodate the scientific advances nutrition has made that show we don't need carbs like white potato to complete our meals and, ironically (how has it taken us so long to realise basic, natural food is best?!) take it back to it's primal state. Here's how to create the above, all you need is £5.

Carb-free updated version of the traditional English classic comfort food, Cottage Pie. Adapted from a Nigel Slater recipe.
This was made for my students to represent England for an International Food Evening I was hosting at the school. Having been told on many occasions that English food has a reputation for being bad, I often tell students to forget fish and chips and to really experience good English food to go to a (good) pub and get some pub grub, with a pint, for a taste of true English culture. Also having listened to their complaints of being served potatoes with almost every meal at their host families and not being a huge potato lover either, I wanted to reshape their views on English food and show them that it doesn't have to suck.

The Boy decided we should make dinner using only reduced ingredients. Challenge accepted and it was delicious! Foraging for city folk - but not skipping! we're not going that far - yet.

Let's set the scene. Venice Beach, Los Angeles. Skaters paradise, surfers paradise. Palm trees and blue skies. It's December, you're wearing shorts and t-shirts sitting on the beach eating ice cream.
You're walking up and down the boardwalk marvelling at the fact there's an ACTUAL freak show (WTF) and muscle maniacs from muscle beach just down the road. You hire a skateboard, get drunk skate up and down and then discover a food vendor to die for. "Poke.Poke - The surfer's sashimi". Those two words together? surfing and sashimi? It couldn't be more appealing.
