Low-GL Lunch: Fish

While at Sainsbury doing my fud shopping, I had a flash...'I'd have some fish tonight'. And here I go to the frozens...as I like to buy more and keep them in the freezer...while browsing, I get hit by another flash....why should I buy frozen and not fresh? ok, it might be a little more expensive...but I'm not going to buy for a whole battalion...

So here I go now to the fresh fish counter...scallops...salmon...huge prawns...trout...mmmmm...I am curious for a long time to find out how does the thing called 'haddock' taste like...I pick two fillets...and here I go now to cook it...

I remember how my mom was cooking the fillet at home....some onion and carrots, the fillets, some salt and pepper, olive oil drizzle and some wine (sorry, no white in stock, only some red) in the oven for maybe 20 mins at 200 degrees.


Meanwhile I think it would be nice to have some sauce over my smoked undyed haddock... blitz my chopped tomatoes with 2 cloves of garlic, and then heat them in a pan with olive oil, salt, pepper , thyme and basil...

Boil some whole basmati rice (60g no more for a portion)...

...and a huge salad - this time i bought a mix of watercress, spinach and rocket plus some normal salad for volume, one tomato and some green pepper, onion by default....salt, balsamic vinegar and a lil' olive oil....

Its effing low GL and unbelievably tasty....don't just believe me on this..try for yourself!...:-)
