Bounty from the sea

I am unashamedly a meat and fish eater. As I have said before, I eat like a peasant- whatever is in season and has been provided by the universe is worth eating. I really have no time with precious individuals who find looking at a dead animal (fish in this instance) upsetting. Our ancestors were lucky if they had food to eat! Food is not entertainment - it is sustenance.

This gurnard had left the water a mere five hours before he landed on my plate. I do admit, he looks rather cute. Gurnard is a cheap and delicious fish but full of bones....
