Great post Brett - gonna be hard to beat that!

Couple of mine from this year. First off, I started making fish stock from my Snapper and Flathead frames. Really easy and loaded with flavour.

Used it in a mediterranean style seafood chowder with prawns, fish, Mussels and pippies and topped with Gruyere cheese and toasted baguette.

Last one is pretty standard around here, but always a winner, fresh caught Salt and Pepper squid with Bok Choy, rice and a sesame/soy/brown sugar/chilli/lime asian dressing.

Sorry about the low res shots - all from the iPhone and generally in too much of a hurry to eat to get the camera out.

Cheers

Those look awesome tim.
How'd the chowder turn out?
Did you strain through a cloth or proper fibre strainer or just ladle out the liquid?
Was it a strong broth or just a perfect mix?

Thanks Brett,

The chowder was delicious. I roughly followed a basic recipe, but kinda made it up as I went along. I want to do a proper French Bouillabaisse from scratch next time.

For the stock, I basically filled a pot with a large snapper frame, a couple of pinky frames and a Flatty frame (all with heads), browned them slightly and added the vegetable ingredients and water, brought it to the boil and simmered for 40 mins. Tested it along the way till I was happy and strained it through a wire kitchen sieve to get rid of the bones and scales. Froze it in two batches and it turned out pretty well with a consistency not too dissimilar to the shop bought stuff. There's heaps of variations on the interweb, but they're all pretty similar. Important to use non-oily fish like Snapper or Flatty.

Cheers

Tim
