I am a big fan of fish. It’s a great source of protein omega 3 and vitamins.
Before I met my husband Greg, who’s a chef, I had no idea how to cook fish. Recently I’ve discovered Taste.com.au as a really good site for non-chefs like me. The recipes spell things out clearly and have times for cooking. The comments down the bottom of the recipes are helpful too. This Easy Fish Curry recipe was really good and fun to make. And healthy!
