        Yesterday night exactly.
        My wife managed to buy one of my favorite fish here in Norway: a turbot. Wild-caught. 800g. Perfect taste and texture. Et voilà!

            My son made Jjajang Tteokbokki today. Including home made fish cake, rice cake and pork belly. Looks a bit weird because of the black bean sauce but it was super delicious.

                        Paula is away, and Kira has to leave for London earlier than @Alex , so I'm cooking for me and him.

                        Thought I would try another Fallow recipe. I love these guys, they give out so many Jeez-why-did-I-not-know-that cheffy tips.

                        I doing their Ragu and Gnocchi.

                        And this in one of those great tips. Normally I'd think the mince was done when it was grey and soggy, having boiled in the liquid it gives off.

                        They say to boil off the liquid on super high heat, then lower the heat and cook, scraping the bottom of the pan regularly, until it's dark brown from the Maillard reaction...

                          Brilliant, I always have issues getting a good Maillard with minced meat and can only achieve it when roasting bit by bit in small quantities

                              This technique worked a treat

                                Won't be getting many plaudits for my Gnocchi 🙂 They taste good, but I think the dough was too wet, so I found it very difficult to handle, and you are supposed not to work it too much, so I left it as is....

                                  @Giles the baking the potatoes on salt in the oven technique like you did it for the mash on the pie works great for gnocchi dough too.

                                    That is what I did. BUT, I did not put them on a bed of salt, which may have extracted more moisture from them....

                                      Can also depend on what type of potatoes you used. I always do need more or less extra starch depending on the potatoes although I always work with the same recipe. That’s why Italian grandma‘s don’t use recipes, they feel the dough 😁
