These little beauties are what happen when you combine happy accident Quinoa Tortillas and Mango Salsa and a few other fresh bits and pieces for an inspired summer-y meal.

I’ve previously shared the extent we went to for fish tacos in San Diego… these are better, if I do say so myself. Added bonus – no need to drive anywhere, you can have them in your very own home.

Fish Tacos

Ingredients:

300g [2/3 lbs] white fish fillets – no bones or skin.
1/4 c cornmeal/polenta
sea salt, cracked black pepper
olive oil spray

To serve:

1 c finely sliced red cabbage
1/2 bunch coriander [cilantro] sprigs and leaves
lime wedges

1 quantity Mango Salsa
1 batch [8 pieces] Quinoa Tortillas

Yogurt Sauce: 1/4 – 1/2 c natural or greek yogurt mixed with a pinch of salt and a bit of water until thin enough to drizzle. [optional]

Method:

Rinse and pat fish dry. Cut into chunks/fingers and season lightly with salt and pepper. Toss fish pieces in cornmeal or liberally sprinkle over both sides.

Coat fish pieces with oil spray on one side. Cook spray-side down in a non-stick pan on medium-high heat until golden. Spray with oil, flip over and cook for another minute until done. Remove pan from heat and squeeze a bit of fresh lime juice over fish pieces.

To assemble tacos fill each Quinoa Tortilla with: Red cabbage and coriander sprigs, a few fish pieces and some Mango Salsa. Drizzle over Yogurt Sauce [if using]. Serve with lime wedges.

Makes 8 tacos – serves 2-3 people

      Oh Piggy – there you go again adding more restaurants to my list! Looks like Tacombi is only half a block away from our fav Cuban place – can’t believe I’ve never even seen it!

    Fish tacos are my love! I really like the sound of these quinoa tortillas too – I’ve toyed with the idea of making my own for a while now, but these ones have me sold. Fantastic!

    We made your quinoa tortillas when you first posted them and they were so good, nate and I kept eating them as soon as they came off the stove, so we stood there devouring each one, I love fish tacos, we are making these, this weekend!

That’s it. That’s the post.
Apparently today is National Strawberry Day, it’ Apparently today is National Strawberry Day, it’s overcast and raining in LA (so a plate of sunshine is absolutely necessary), and if you’ve been here for more than a hot second you know how I feel about toast.
🍞🍓🥒🌱
Toasted sourdough, goat chèvre (or vegan cream cheese), sliced strawberries, cucumber ribbons, fresh mint, olive oil, black pepper, just a pinch of salt. Go forth and feast.

I took this video on Jan 1. I even wrote a caption I took this video on Jan 1. I even wrote a caption and everything. And I intended to post it that day as a reflection moving into a new year. But instead, mom and I went out for pizza and wine, and then it was Jan 2, and so on and so on. 
🌀
So instead you’re getting it on Feb 1. A new day and another new month (but what is a new month or a new year, other than a societal convention really). 
☀️
Because, each day, each sunrise, we have the opportunity to start anew - no matter how big or little that start may be. A chance to take another step forward - no matter how many steps back you feel you’re fighting against. 
🌀
Whether this past year brought blinding joy or paralysing grief (and in whatever measure of balance or imbalance), I hope each new day sees the landscape of your life look one step closer to what you imagine it to be. And that when the waves roll in and change that landscape, you can roll with it and see the beauty and possibility on the other side.
🌊
If you’ve made it this far, congratulations, have a cookie 🍪 And I’ll leave you with the rolling waves and blue sky of a California beach in January. I truly hope this year sees us all grow stronger and move forward with each new day. Going backwards is simply not an option.

…
When the middle little insisted on buying quail eggs over Christmas, but due to allll the other food we never cooked them, I simply couldn’t let the little guys go to waste. 
🥚
Could I have made one dish? Of course. Did I instead prepare quail eggs four ways, bake mini loaves of brioche, make mini waffles, dig through the prop closet for the smallest dishes, and set up an entire table? Of course I did. 
💥
Swipe to the end for reference on the size of the eggs and loaf.

My go-to pizza topping combo 🍕 Made on that dou My go-to pizza topping combo 🍕 Made on that dough from a couple weeks ago and voiced by the middle little (who is about as different from her younger sister as you can get!) 💥.
🍕
Sometimes this combo gets prawns too 🍤. Most of the time I don’t bother mixing the ingredients in a bowl and just layer them on top. The cheese is a hard goat cheese (because I can’t do 🐄). The ‘spices’ 🌱 is Sicilian oregano. The measurements are random at best - a handful of this, a splash of that. 
🍕
If you have a fave veggie or seafood pizza combo I’d love to hear it. Because as Ms.S says, voila, yummy yummy pizza!
Flowers for your Friday, that is all.

Look at me, coming at’cha with a double whammy o Look at me, coming at’cha with a double whammy of my go-to Half-Spelt, Sourdough Discard Pizza Dough recipe 🍕 (the one I’ve been teasing for years), AND a new voiceover by little Ms Marmalade herself 👧🏼.
☀️ I mean, I’m not saying the sound on this video will brighten up your day by an infinite amount, but I’m not, not, saying that either ✨. 
—-
The full recipe with all the info is over on my site (⛓ in profile and all that jazz), along with a longer version of the video. Because a 5yo singing - SINGING - about rolling dough into balls is ah-mazing. 
—-
Ingredients, for those wondering:
* whole spelt flour
* white 00 pizza flour
* water
* sourdough starter discard
* active dry yeast
* kosher salt
* millet flour (for shaping)
⏲ All the times and weights are in that aforementioned post - plus opts to bake right away vs letting it all ferment for a day or two... There’s also a list of equipment I use, and my personal flour and pizza oven faves. Now go have a pizza party! 🍕🎉
Well hello there! ‘Tis the season and all means Well hello there! ‘Tis the season and all means it’s about time I (finally) shared this 🍗 🍇🍊 image from a test shoot collab well over a year ago 🙈. I actually made these Cornish Hens for Christmas last year too and they’ll be on the menu again this year. It’s a perfect holiday feast solution for a small group with only a few meat eaters, but also if you simply can’t be bothered to tackle a turkey!

There seems to be a common thread this year of people asking in stories if it’s ok to start decorating for 🎄 already - my answer, every time, is ‘the world is on fire, time has no meaning, go for your life’. Am I wrong? (I’m not, haha) I may even put up a tree here more than 3 days before (I do keep it up until Easter though, so who knows 😜). Are you getting festive already or do you have hard and fast rules about these things?
