Catch of the Day
The other day, while exploring the local gourmet supermarket, I came across some absolutely beautiful fresh tuna loin.
That evening I transformed it with a quick searing in a hot frying pan, into my dinner. I timed it to a perfect rareness and accompanied it with rough-mashed cauliflower and cherry tomatoes with olive oil and balsamic vinegar.
It reminded me of when I was living in Tenerife, the fishermen would bring in their catch and there was always a tuna or two. I'd buy a whole one and load up the freezer, plus Lupo loved a fillet or two for his dinner. From sea to dinner plate (or dog bowl) on the same day, there's nothing like it.

Fi that sounds wonderful - I had some gorgeous John Dory at the weekend - hmmm perhaps a visit to the local fishmonger is on the cards tonight.
that looks SO GOOD! yummy! now i'm hungry! : )
I don't really eat fish and that looks good to me even...
YUM, califlower mashed potatoes!
Oh it looks absolutely heavenly, mouthwateringly so.
Sigh, I took the easy way out tonight, stuck a pizza in the oven, lost myself in a book, and ended up burning the pizza....didja know blackened cheese isn't quite as bad as it sounds? Ah well, I wasn't really all that hungry anyway.
How do you make that rough mash cauliflower? Apart from mashing it obviously :) Do you add anything for flavour?
Sounds yummy! Looks delicious!
Wish I could get Cag to eat fish. We used to have it every other day when we lived in Brixham.
Straight from the boat to the table, Mmmmmmmm.
