Fried Rice with Shrimps
December 28th, 2013 in Fish, Main Dishes by Julia Volhina
One more recipe for fried rice, this time with shrimps.
As any fried rice, it is pretty easy and fast to cook, especially if you use frozen vegetables, just don’t forget to unfreeze them as well as shrimps in advance before cooking.
Most of the salt for this recipe comes from soy sauce, only eggs need a bit of additional salting.
Salmon in Mustard, Lemon Juice and Soy Sauce Marinade
July 27th, 2013 in Fish, Main Dishes by Julia Volhina
This is very easy way to cook salmon, you just need to put marinade together, pour it over salmon and then cook salmon together with marinade.
I used portion salmon fillets for this recipe (6oz each), but salmon steaks or a whole salmon fish will work here as well. For cooking whole fish increase marinating time for couple of hours or even do it overnight, and bake it instead of frying.
Fresh vegetables or boiled potato are good side dishes for salmon cooked this way.
Fish with Vegetables
May 25th, 2013 in Fish, Main Dishes by Julia Volhina
This is my mom’s recipe, she used to cook pretty much any fish we had like this. Original recipe calls for parsley roots, but they are hard to come around here, so I used parsnips instead and it worked good.
Important moment: the fish should be with bones (so pieces won’t fall apart). Actually this recipe is very good for bony fish: if you let fish simmer with vegetables for longer – smaller bones will dissolve while cooking.
Mussels Steamed with Shallots in Wine and Butter Sauce
February 9th, 2013 in Fish, Main Dishes by Julia Volhina
This is a recipe for tender mussels steamed with shallots, garlic and fresh greens in dry white wine and butter sauce. It will work great for a romantic dinner.
Use good white wine you would drink yourself for this recipe to achieve best results. And serve remaining of the wine along with mussels later.
Steamed mussels go great with toast garlic bread or a baguette with garlic.
Boiled Snow Crab Legs with Old Bay Seasoning
January 19th, 2013 in Fish, Main Dishes by Julia Volhina
If you saw frozen snow crab legs in store and wanted to try them, but wasn’t sure how to cook them – this recipe is for you.
It is easy and fast idea for lunch or dinner, assuming the crab legs are sold pre-cooked (have somewhat orange-red color) and only need to be warmed up and seasoned with some spaces to taste.
You can cook raw crab legs like this also, it may require a bit more time for cooking.
Pairs well with warm Lemon Garlic Butter Sauce.
Minced Fish Cutlets with Rice
September 8th, 2012 in Fish, Main Dishes by Julia Volhina
Tender fish cutlets can be prepared of many kinds of fish to your choice (I used tilapia fillets for example).
If fish you are planning on using has bones, they will need to removed before mincing, skin can be kept intact (presuming scales and fins removed as well).
Fish cutlets can be served warm or cooled down, boiled whole potatoes or mash potatoes are good side dish for these, a dash of mayo is a nice addition.
Tuna Salad Sandwich
July 14th, 2012 in Fish, Main Dishes by Julia Volhina
Tuna salad sandwich is a great choice of food for a lunch or to take with you when you are on the go.
This tuna salad with eggs, bell pepper and a bit of onions is easy to do, and can be stored in a fridge for couple of days if needed.
I use tuna chunks in water, but tuna in oil will work as well, if you like it more – use it.
Listed amount ingredients is enough for 11-12 sandwiches.
