    Some nice recipes on last night's program that I'd like to try, I wish they'd put them on the website :(

    Yes I thought that, especially when they went to the fish canning place and the guy showed all the recipes using tinned fish.

    Any idea where we could find those......

    I thought the woman was a bit annoying at first, but I did warm to her in the end.


    The thing that made me grin, was when she served the fish and chips in a bowl.... surely fish and chips is a plated meal!


    I liked the look of some of the recipes as well, especially the Moroccan spiced vegetable casserole.


    I don't do Facebook myself, but I'll have a look on the net for similar recipes

    I thought much the same but those frozen cod fillets come in all sorts of odd shapes and sizes so don't look too pretty on a plate. I buy them because they taste just the same but can be £5-6 per kg compared with anything up to £14-£15 per kg buying from the 'fresh' counter. So probably a good idea to disguise misshapen pieces that you might cut up to equalise the portions.


    ETA: here's the cod recipe
