Thread: just wanted to share tonight's dinner with you guys..

OK, I'll do my contribution to bring back the pictures!
I really haven't been cooking much lately, typically I'd munch on some baguette with say Édel de Cléron, or Fourme d'Ambert, but tonight there was fresh trout at the store, so I picked one of them. I don't do anything fancy with it, salt and pepper, some olive oil, stick bunch of herbs and lemon slices in its belly:


Threw in a bit of fennel to roast alongside it too


and that was that. Had a year old cider with it - it still tasted pretty fresh but had some more mature flavors as well - perfect for the fall and the roasted fennel. Usually my vegetables to meat ratio is the opposite than on this plate, but a whole fish is quite a bit, so this time a bit of a change:

They didn't deliver that fish to your door, did they Gugi ?

nah, I don't take messages, I send them

I grilled some tuna steaks tonight. I don't have much experience with tuna so they were overdone. Served with steamed squash and spinach.

Are you secretly heating steel in that pit?? It has that glow to it. Nice. Those steaks look fantastic. I think you got them perfect the first time. Are those peps grilled too?
