Vegetables with drunken fish


Had a nice dinner party with my salsa teacher back in Spain. This time we discovered the fun of flaming fish with beer. The vegetables were great and the fish tasted even more delicious drunk!

This time you’re not to blame me from the fish dish we greated, but my salsa teacher ;)
The dish is for 2 to 3 people.

Fist the veggies:

Olive oil
1 zucchini
1 onion
Some cabbage
2 garlic cloves
Some salt, pepper and herbs

Wash and shop the veggies. First add olive oil and zucchini to a hot pan but low heat and add salt and pepper. After couple minutes add rest of the veggies. Fry until they are cooked, but not smashed. Add herbs (for example oregano, thymine and basil) and a hint more salt and pepper if needed.

The drunken fish:

Olive oil
2 gutted pikes (or whatever fish your salsa teacher brings you)
Salt and pepper
Half a can of beer (the local the better)
1 lemon

Put the fish into a hot pan with some olive oil and fry couple minutes. Spice with salt and pepper. Add beer slowly and try to make it a flame a bit just for the fun of it. Don’t burn down the whole house! Leave it in low heat, squish some lemon juice and add lemon slices and wait till the fish is cooked.

Serve together with spiced couscous if you like and enjoy the dinner talks!
