Silver Case

First…

start with a 9 dirt-encrusted potatoes.

Lovingly hand-washed, by me.

Then excrutiatingly hand-sliced into toothpick-sized pieces. Rosti!

Then…. a handful of fresh rosemary, diced into dust and infused in olive oil.

Oil-and-rosemary tossed w/ potatoes. Aforementioend potato tossed w/ flour and put on a medium-hot griddle. Cook for thirty minutes.

In the meantime…………………………………………………………..

Monkfish fillets.

dusted in corn flour

left to relax for thirty minutes.

In the meantime, a lot of thyme minced and tossed into three free-range eggs.

Said monkfish, washed in egg/thyme mixture, and rolled in a thyme/sourdough bread crumb mixture I made before this narrative even began.

Pan fried. Tested with simple knife. Plunge into fillet, Touch to lip. Cold? Keep cooking. Hot? It’s done!

While all this is cooking…………. softened two fists of onions in a palm of butter. Then subsequently tossed into blanched peas. Sans mint. No one likes drum rolls or mints if they’re honest.

Eat eat eat drink wine. Done.

Good night.
