Today is Fish day! Namely Salmon!

Lunch: Mega burrito with wholemeal flatbread, salmon fillets, baby spinach leaves and lined with mash and some mayo. M-m-m-Monster Burrito!


Started to burst leaks at the bottom halfway through, so I gave up and just ate it like any civilised person would, with a fork and knife.
Decided to do something with the leftover mash from yesterday, and what better way to post-process already processed spuds than to make potato cakes! Used cornflour because I didn't have regular flour.


First batch of potato cakes turned out crispy and nice, but a tad too difficult to flip and tended to break easily. Tasted like lumpy rosti.
So I added an egg to the rest (bad move) and a few more teaspoons of cornflour, then gave it a good working over before cooking it.


The potato cakes turned out...like pancakes. Eggy pancakes. Oh well, atleast they still taste good, but they gave me "木薯糕" vibes, smell and texture wise.


The star of the show! The last of the salmon fillet! A little small though. Look at how fresh and pink the flesh is! And that's after I froze and thawed it out!


Dinner: S&P Salmon Fillet with potato cakes and wilted baby spinach salad. Threw the spinach leaves in the hot pan after the fish was done, tossed it around to soak up the remaining oils in the pan and wilt it a little. Mmm delish! Though the fish was a little overdone on the outside, but the inside was perfect like last time! Perhaps I was using too high a heat, and seared the outside a little too much.
