A few scollys and oysters would go well in there too but I didnt have any.

Also the fish stock is optional if you have none.

A good effort,both in the recipe making and presenting it to us. I take it that the remainder of the Sav/Blanc bottle was an ingredient for motivation of the Chef.

Not enough? Then add some more. Better than water, which the original recipe probably listed. ANY recipe I encounter which asks for water, generally gets wine instead.

Ruined by celery Satins vegetable otherwise looks and sounds perfect. Although knowing your tastes, I'm suprised by the meager amount of curry and no chilli at all

Mornay to me smacks of "shit this might have been in the fridge a bit long. Got a bit of a tang to it. Better grind it up with a pile of spices and stuff to disguise the flavour.

Thats all good, bit like the curry pie then eh;)

Nothing in this one to disguise the flavor tho and I even had leftover for breakfast.
More a case of doing something different with it as it had already been tea, and the next days lunch. No tang to it at all.

I’m not to much of a fan of Mornay’s , but my wife would probably divorce me and marry you if she saw this thread .

I’m counting down the days to Blue Cod opening down the Sounds .
I dont know why, but Blue Cod just screams Christmas to me .

I would bring my gear up but it would be less hassle to hire it up there? I'll just bring my regs.
Do you know any good spots?

Fuck it I'll just bring up some frozen ones. You will get me eaten by a shark chumming the water after I jump in[emoji16]

It would be cheaper to buy a crayfish than bring your gear up from down there.

I have never dived up there so pretty keen to get wet up that way.

But I am pretty sure beaker would enjoy posting a vid of me running on water after he lures all the big sharks in.

Give me a chart and I will mark some spots for you. I haven’t dived in two and a half decades but they would still put you there or thereabouts.

Fuck yes!

I'll even hire the gear up here for you. Actually, you running would be a sight - on water or land.....

Here's a idea, you come out as the navigator, I'll drive and
@R93 can retrieve scallops and crayfish. And when he's near limit we can find some sharks and have a laugh :)
