Tomato & Mascarpone Sauce.

A Nottage Hill Chardonay, a Chilean Cabernet Sauvignon & a Californian Merlot should wash that down a treat.

Have not decided what to give the others to drink yet.;)

:drool: - well except for the Chardonnay ;)

- Spaghetti Bolognaise for us tonight, Mrs Gaz in charge :)

Good choice of wine, dellwear, a nice fruity Australian ;) - enjoy :cool:

- our spaghetti was yummy, been using wholemeal spaghetti, recently - good if you like your 'al dente' to lean on the chewy side ;)

Well its Thursday, so it is fish again, the stall on the local market never ceases to amaze me with the choice but today I played safe,

Fresh Sea Bass, cooked in the oven in foil with wine and Dill.
got to be Hollandaise sauce again with this fish.
Seasonal veg, carrots, peti pois etc.

To drink I had a very nice, crisp and ultra dry Frascati, the wife is not into vin blanc so she had an Antipodean Chiraz Reserve, nice choice, it goes really well with a mature Cheddar and a couple of pieces of Cadbury's finest.

last time we had sea bass, it was the wrapped in wet paper & baked in the oven method - bit of fennel & some dill & lemon juice, lovely :drool: - yours sounded lovely, too :drool: - but if you do it in wet paper, the skin/scales should come off, stuck to the paper, when you unwrap it :)

and watch out for the escolar - 'fake' sea bass that cause all sorts of gastric chaos :eek:

- oh, & currently asda south african red ;)

All these late breakfasts, its quite funny but I have just had, bacon, sausages, eggs, tomatoes, mushrooms, baked beans with an oven bottom muffin and a pint pot of tea.

To tell the truth I normally do this for Sunday lunch, but we took my daughter and her boyfriend out for a meal last night to celebrate her birthday, the food was excellent and the wine flowed........and flowed...........and then the brandy ......got in very late and did not feel up to tackling my usual Sunday lunch until now.:)
