Here at SurreyKitchen we aim to promote healthy eating. Fish is a highly nutritious food and an excellent source of protein with fewer calories than meat. Rich in omega 3 fatty acids fish is proven to be good for the heart. Many of us need to include a greater number of portions of fish in our diet, but at the same time fresh fish can be expensive to buy. This is why I have decided to share my delicious thrifty fish supper recipe with you.
Made with a Lidl’s mixed fish pack costing approximately £2 you don’t have to worry about the wastage that comes with buying whole pieces of fish.
A colourful dish with peppers, chopped tomatoes, chilli, garlic and onion served on a bed of brown rice. You can’t beat this fish supper for a healthy dinner packed with powerful flavours.
Any leftovers will make the perfect lunch for the following day. I froze my leftovers to use one week later.
Serves 4
Time: 20-30 minutes
Ingredients
Olive oil
1 mixed fish pack (Lidl’s/Aldi’s/other supermarkets)
1 red onion finely chopped
2 cloves garlic finely chopped
1 small chilli finely chopped
2 fresh bay leaves
1 red pepper chopped
1 yellow/green pepper chopped
1 tin chopped tomatoes
1 tsp tomato puree
Brown rice x 4 people
Preparation Method:
1) Place a saucepan of water on the hob and bring to the boil. Add the brown rice and simmer on low.
2) Add a glug of oil to a large saucepan and fry onion garlic and chill until soft.
3) Add the chopped peppers, bay leaves and stir together.
4) Pour over tin of chopped tomatoes and add a tsp of tomato puree. Mix together and simmer for ten minutes on a low heat.
5) When the brown rice is almost ready to serve add the mixed fish pack to the tomato sauce and simmer for a further 5-7 minutes.
6) Divide the brown rice between four plates and ladle over the delicious fish supper.

Baby Alice had her first BBQ ever! Awesome stuff!
I just wanted to let our readers know that my new series of ‘Scared New Mum,’ posts will start this week. I’m afraid I’ve been delayed by health visitor appointments, friends and relatives visiting baby Alice, baby groups and so on.
Miles says ‘Look how I’ve had to slum it since baby Alice arrived.’
Emma, Ross, Alice and Miles xxxxx
I bet Miles is loving eating on the bed! My PEte would be proud to hear baby Alice has enjoyed her first barbecue (braai as we call it) and I need to see if we get mixed fish packs.
Have a beautiful day Emma.

We had an amazing braai when we were on safari in South Africa. Il never forget it! Looking forward to your post on SurreyKitchen. Have a fantastic week xx
This sounds really good! I know I will like this recipe! I will try it later! We need to eat more fish:)
I’m glad you liked the fish recipe and the reblog. I realised after I did it that I probably should have asked first. Have a fantastic week. Emma xx

Alice has a lot of hair!! She looks so sweet! Great fish dish!
She has tons of hair Mimi. Her quiff is very funny. She looks like a mini Elvis! xx

What a delicious looking dish. We love fish. Might now the boys are a little addicted to fish tacos, we make them once a week or there will be an uprising! Alice looks like she enjoyed her first barbecue.
It’d great your boys eat so healthily. Fish tacos sounds wonderful. Would you be able to post the recipe. Sounds like the kind of thing I would be interested in making. We had a great first BBQ. Best wishes to you and your family.xxx
We pretty much wing it with fish tacos depending on what we have around but it probably is worth a blog post soon.
I look forward to it. xx
