I had to rearrange my pantry cupboard and realized that we could start a small feeding scheme with all the food I have there. I saw the tin of tuna and fish cakes came to mind...... I am sure that everyone has a fish cake recipe that they swear by and I will not try and sway you, but this just a quick throw-together recipe that I tried.
Fish cakes and (rustic) mushy peas....
Ingredients
3 cooked potatoes, mashed roughly
500gr tinned tuna chunks
zest of a lemon
1 egg
handful of parsley and mint
salt and pepper to taste
chili(optional)
Pulse the machine, but do not over process.
Form small patties and fry in hot skillet.
Cook some frozen peas and mash with a knob of butter.
I stacked my food tonight, but afterwards I thought it looks a bit like a overdressed woman at the Oscars - let me know what you think.....

The mushy peas are so vibrant! As for the fishcake, a combo of seafood is always nice too.
Thx Peter, I saw a lovely recipe for fresh salmon fish cakes tonight that I will try next. I can so rely on you to always pop in.Thx
I like the stack...the presentation can make something simple with stuff for the pantry seem very special.
Hi Nina
All looks pretty outstanding to me! This is what I call proper grub.
Cheers

Another beautiful picture! It looks so delicious with such bright ingredients!
I love fish cakes. This looks like it's quick to put together and is good to serve to the family.
kat - This is really what I want to teach people - every one can make their meals looks special.
david - you're right. thanks for your visit.
jessy - thx, you're so kind
helene - with small children in the house, I sure do need those "quickly-put-together" meals. Thx for popping in.
not over dress at all! thanks for your idea and I know what to do to my bag of peas.
gattina - I see it is unanimous that you can "dress up" some times. Mushy peas is a Jamie Oliver "favorite.Don't forget to add the mint and knob of butter. Thx for stopping by.
I am thinking,Grammy awards 2000,when J.Lo walked the carpet in her promiscuous Versace designed green dress! But yours do look good, keep stacking!
rose and thorn - thanks a "stack"!

Amazing green colours!
I'm not the world's biggest fishcake fan, but if presented with this dish in a restaurant I would definitely be pleased. Great photos
