Gurnard with New Forest Cider

Posted on February 3, 2008 by uk cider


While I was at Social Media Cafe on Friday, Linda went along to Borough market to buy some fish and cider. We’ve had gurnard before, but only the small ones that can be cooked whole or at least headless. This was a whopper, and impressive to look at so I decided to start taking digital photographs of the process.

So there we have it, nice big flakes of tender white fish strongly enough flavoured to take the chorizo, fennel and cider sauce with earthy little pink fir apple potatoes to fill the dish and hungry consumers. Yum.

The Kingston Black New Forest cider was delicious as always, easy drinking but deceptively potent.

    Wow, love your photographs showing the steps. Especially with the whole fish, then the fillet, then the final presentation!
