When to debone a fish can depend on your preference. You can either debone a fish before or after cooking it. As for myself, I’ve found it easier to debone a fish after it has been cooked, but then again, I usually find it more enjoyable to eat a fillet that has been deboned before being cooked. Like I said, it’s up to your personal tastes whether you’re going to debone your fish after or before cooking it.

A Sunday lunch with roast chicken, roast potatoes, steamed vegetables and gravy is one of those classic English meals that can soar into the culinary sublime or dive into the dismals. A good experience leaves you satisfied and replete, a bad one consigns British cooking to the doldrums, where our European neighbours shake their heads sadly over our penchant for soggy vegetables, greasy potatoes and overcooked meat.
The assigning of names to coffee roasts can seem a bit illogical if not confusing at times, but when coffee roast names first began to emerge within the coffee industry, their application was based, to a small degree, on fact. For example, both the French and Italians had (and still have) a tendency to roast their coffee very dark, thus the emergence of the French and Italian Roasts. But, in today’s marketplace, standard coffee roast names (if you can call them standard) seem to be giving way to individual roasters offering catchy, private label, brand names that don’t really communicate to the consumer what the actual roast style is. And to throw more confusion into the mix, often times the roast style names vary by geographic region. An American roast in one region of the U.S. may not be of the same degree of roast as in another region, or the same degree of roast in one region may have a totally different name in another region. Are we confused yet?
2 lbs baby potatoes, pre-cooked
butter
sea salt
fresh ground black pepper
If you need to par-boil these potatoes first, place them in a large pan of boiling water and cook for about 5 to 8 minutes. Do NOT peel them, but scrub them if necessary and cut any protruding eyes out.
Drain them well and place them straight on to the BBQ grill/shelf, moving them around all the time with heatproof tongs.
1/2 cup unsalted butter, plus extra butter for greasing pan
2 tablespoons light corn syrup, plus extra for serving
1/2 cup superfine sugar
2 eggs, lightly beaten
1 1/2 cups self-rising flour
2 tablespoons milk
1 grated lemon rind
