HELP!!! Calling OS MSE'ers for Panic Attack prevention support!

LondonDiva

Hello All

I've just got back from a truly crappy day at work and have received a text from a friend telling me to expect her at 7.30 for the dinner & catch up I apparently promised her I'm not even going to go there!

I've checked the fridge & freezer & would you know it, all I have apart from the cupboard stuff is some frozen fish & veg. I have:

*smoked haddock & coley fillets
*frozen carrots
*frozen green beans
*frozen diced swede
*frozen sweetcorn
*a bottle of wine

Can anyone come up with an edible meal from that? My brain seems to have gone on holiday & I can't even make sense of the bbc food website for ideas. What do I do

for dessert, I've got icecream & a custard tart I was planning on treating myself to over the weekend.

Any help truly, truly appreciated

Diva :cool:

have you got any rice? Make savoury vegetable rice and have it with the fish.
you could have carrot and swede soup to start.

If you have

Rice - make kedgeree, add hard boiled eggs

Potatoes - fishermans pie, either topped with mash from the freezer or scalloped potatoes and quick sauce

knock up some pastry and make a quick fish and veg pie

failing that, she's your friend, just go to the chippy!

open the wine and have a good time

I was going to suggest rice too - for kedgeree. Do you have any eggs?

Kedgeree:

Thank you for replying guys, I've opened some of the wine & was thinking of breaking my saving promise & ordering in (shush!). However, I've had a glass & it all seems a little less daunting :D:D

I'm stuck between the steaming the fish in wine, with veggie mash or the rice and fish.

rice and fish - that way you can drink the wine
