A Lovely Bit of British Plaice


















I bought some plaice from the fishmongers and decided to cook it with one of my new spice blends; the tropical spice goes really well with fish. I served it with garlic and herb potatoes, some garden picked salad and minted mayonaise.

For the potatoes
Cover the potatoes in a light coating of oil. --- Mix jACKrABBIT garlic and herb potato spice with equal amounts of dried breadcrumbs, then coat the potatoes with the mixture till covered. --- Roast the potatoes for about 45 minutes (depending on size) till cooked.
For the fish
Sprinkle the tropical rub onto a plate and lay the fish over it till you get an even coating. --- Grill for about 10-15 minutes (sprinkle lemon juice over whilst cooking) till the fish is nearly cooked through, then turn to cook the underside. 
For the minted mayonaise
Chop about 8 fresh mint leaves, and bruise slightly to release the flavour. --- In a small bowl mix mint with about 4 tablespoons of mayonaise and 2 capful's of cider vinegar.
--- Serve the dish with the minted mayonaise on the side and some salad. ---

I served it all with a refreshing glass of Urban Harvest apple juice.
