zoo_music_girlReally delicous, low fat, high omega oils, mega-easy recipe I thought I'd share. (Actually it's too easy to call it a recipe.) Totally ripped off from the Magic Mackerel Couscous that Leon's do, but mine was much better, I think it was the cinnamon.
Ingredients (Quantities are kind of rough estimates.)
1 fillet of smoked mackerel per person
Handful of hazelnuts per person, slightly crushed
Handful of dried apricots, chopped
1/4 teaspoon of cinnamon per person
cous cous (enough for each person)
Some leek, sliced.
Olive oil
Make up the couscous using vegetable stock and include the cinnamon, apricots and hazelnuts while it's absorbing the stock. When the couscous is ready, microwave or fry the leeks in some olive oil or butter (I find microwaving them means they go soft but don't burn). Put couscous mix in a big pasta bowl, leeks on the side and fillet on the top. Eat.
And excitingly, there's light snow predicted for London next week!

He doesn't post anything very often, but there's one from this month talking about the interesting time he had travelling from Turkey to Israel to do some recording. There's a Myspace group too, with forums that you don;t seem to need to be logged in or a member to read, although obviously you do have to be willing to touch myspace with a bargepole.
