Comfort food

I hate to think how many calories are in this but after reading Briony's post it gave me the urge for some comfort food. I set to and made a mini bread and butter pudding using my elderflower and lemon marmalade. It's only one sandwich which we will share with a bit of custard... I was tempted to make a much bigger one but then we would have had to eat it... :-) Puddings aren't a regular feature here in Kemp castle. Just as well as I have no willpower at all. That's not all I made though.  I decided to make a tasty fish pie which will do us two days. I never use as much cream and butter as the recipe calls for so it isn't as loaded with calories as it might have been. I will serve it with some steamed veggies.
Here they are all ready to pop into a medium oven






Just big enough for two people to have a little sweet treat

One large Basa fillet. A handful of prawns and a slice of smoked salmon. Cook them in a lovely creamy sauce 

Mmmmmmmm cheesy buttery mashed potatoes on top

  1. Elderflower and lemon marmalade sounds so good.
    I only eat treats at the weekend now usually, but it is that time of year isn't it when we crave for more. x

  3. Two of my favourite "feel good" things to eat there, I sometimes make a brioche loaf and freeze for bread and butter pudding.
