Canned Tuna Fish Cakes

Fast and easy ...

Combine drained canned tuna and cold mashed potato at a 1:2 ratio of potato to fish.

Add in any flavourings you like - chilli, ground coriander, lemon rind, whatever.

Gently fry off in your favourite paleo fat, goose fat for me.

Serve with mixed vegetables, some mayonnaise and a wedge of lime, scattered herbs over.

Roasted Sprouts & Bacon with Mashed Cauliflower, Feta & Soured Cream

Really two meals combined ...

Roasted Sprouts & Bacon

Oven on at 180C.

Par-boil some Brussels sprouts, half and drop into a roasting tray with shredded fatty bacon and a few cloves of garlic.

Omit the bacon and add in some coconut oil or olive oil for a vegetarian alternative.

Commit to the oven for about half an hour.

Mashed Cauliflower, Feta & Soured Cream

Steam some cauliflower and crush with feta cheese and soured cream.

Serve

Roasted sprouts down first, cauliflower over and a good knob of butter on top, shredded spring onions to garnish.

Mayaj - Sheep Brain Curry

... something interesting for lunch.

I popped out with a pal of mine for a spot of lunch at Akbar's Café in Bradford, an excellent lunchtime venue with a really interesting menu.

For starters, we had Liver Tikka and Panner Tikka; mains, curried Lamb Shank and Mayaj - a sheep brain curry.

Nutritionally, brain is phenomenal giving something like 4000% RDA of cholesterol, massively protein-rich and full of good saturated fats. The only thing that could make it any better would be to curry it, a popular dish in Pakistan.

I think the curry was very simple, just the brains, onion and spice base and some fresh coriander. Served with steamed rice, lovely!
