I've been eating out far too often lately and have resolved to cut back, so the other day I dipped into Nigel Slater's excellent Kitchen Diaries and found this gem: grilled sirloin steak on a bed of watercress, lime leaves, coriander and mint with tomatoes, cucumber and carrot and a dressing of chilli, lime juice, fish sauce and sweet chilli sauce.
More food related photographs, including stuff I make at home and restaurant reviews, in this set.
Glasgow, 2011.
Cucumbers, sweet baby carrots, green peppers, onion, dry toasted almond slivers, quarter cup of vinegar, quarter cup of olive oil, juice of a quarter lemon, italian seasonings, corse sea salt, fresh ground pepper, about a tablespoon of parmesean cheese.
The battle for the control of the seas has begun.
The evil Ursula is on a power trip and she decided to be the only rightful rules of the Seven Seas.
However this time her machinations does not put her against a little mermaid but against the King Of Atlantis and Aquaman has no desire to indulge her deranged plans.
Their tridents clash as the fight moves to a deserted beach. Aquaman dispatched Ursula’s goons with ease but evil octopus does not care about it. She is one of the seas’ most wicked minds and what can go wrong here? Well many things actually.
“I demand your obedience, insolent Atlantean!” She yells.
“The only thing you are in a position to demand is to be the main ingredient of an octopus salad.” Arthur replies.
With a swift movement of his Trident he shatters Ursula’s one and then he puts an end to the evil creature's plans of aquatic dominance.
It really seems today’s menu will have an octopus salad, after all lol :)
The battle for the control of the seas… was a quick one but the wicked octopus didn’t stand a chance against the mighty Aquaman.
This is the first photo of a project focusing on the battle between Superheroes and the villains from the new Disney series Minifigures :)
I hope you like this photo :)
Recipe, for small octopussies, 200 gramms or so:
Freeze before cooking.
Defrost.
Remove the beak.
Wash with cold water, with a lot of salt, like laundry.
Repeat 2-3 times -- that makes them clean and a bit softer.
Bring water to boil.
Place them into the water, lid on, boil for some seconds, then let simmer for 50 - 60 minutes. Test with knife tip.
Finito! :-)
Dressing: Splash of oil, white wine vinegar, splash of lime, splash of fish sauce, tiny bit of lime peel. Salt, parsley, garlic, cilantro ... to taste.

Salsa Salad! Baby romaine, sliced grape tomatoes, corn, sliced olives... squirt with some lime and salt/pepper.
Although I didn't do this, I think an avocado based dressing would be great with this salad. Avocado blended with lime and salt, and maybe cayenne powder or a minced jalapeño.
Salads composed from even a few ingredients make a nutrient-rich meal. The greens alone have calcium, iron, potassium and B vitamins. Many salad basics, including tomatoes, sweet peppers and the greens, are chock-full of antioxidants. Add high fiber and low calories into the mix and you can't go wrong including a salad in your daily diet. What Are the Benefits of Eating Salads?
I just made this salad to take to a potluck event tonight and am pleased that I didn't manage to screw it up for vegans by adding one forbidden item. It contains arugula, watermelon, avocado, olive oil, lime juice, cayenne pepper, salt, black pepper. I'm also pleased that I was able to find a Florida avocado since I prefer them and since they are less fatty that the small, darker skinned avocados.
