Lunch Saturday 22 July - Fish Cakes and Fine Bean Salad



Fish Cakes and Fine Bean Salad

The fish cakes are leftover from yesterday's lunch, so the recipe is there.

Fine Bean Salad
200g fine beans
1 spring onion
50g wahed wild rocket
1 teaspoon honey
1 teaspoon mustard
1 teaspoon hemp oil
2 cloves garlic
juice 1/2 lemon
salt & pepper to taste

Wash & trim beans and slice french style. Cook in boiling salted water for about 3 minutes, until just wilted but stil with some crunch. Refresh in cold water. Wash, trim and shred the spring onion and combine with the beans.

Make a dressing of the lemon juice, honey, mustrad, oil, crished garlic and seasonings. Pour over the beans and spring onions and allow to stand for about 30 minutes for the flavours to meld.

Arrange the rocket on a plate and mound the bean salad on top.

Fish cakes are served with some homemade catsup (spicy!)
