In My San Diego Garden and Kitchen

This is the most productive year for our Satsuma tangerines that we can remember. As with other fruit trees, it’s often difficult to sort the factors that might have led to the largesse. I’d favor weather conditions and busy bees, but who knows? The abundance is shared with family and neighbors and the Christmas package to our son’s family near Seattle included two dozen tangerines.

The navel oranges sweeten with the cooler nights and the harvest begins in earnest.

We begin the season of fresh squeezed orange juice with breakfast.

We harvested the last of the Jacaranda broccoli. I let the crowns spread a bit before cutting since I was overwhelmed with thirteen large heads within two weeks. My plan to stagger the Jacaranda and Premium Crop varieties did not work out as hoped.

Last week I blanched and prepped five pints of broccoli for the freezer. They’ll be handy for soups as I wait for the side shoots on the Premium Crop plants to develop. After harvesting the crowns, I doused the soil around the plants with liquid seaweed and fish fertilizer, anticipating the side shoots.

As my son, Tim left after the holidays, I sent him home with his garden favs along with bags of tangerines and oranges.

Here are a few of last week’s garden salads. The first cutting of arugula and the last red bell pepper makes for a celebration. With abundant broccoli, I opted for a chop salad with an olive oil and balsamic vinegar dressing—all atop a bed of arugula.

A red bell pepper and a reblooming iris in January—it must be Southern California!

Poisson à la Bordelaise (Bordeaux Style Fish)

A simple yet tasty as dish, Poisson à la Bordelaise is a Proust Madeleine for me. I remember Mum used to pop the frozen meal in the oven in our tiny kitchen on hectic nights --she was a busy working mum with two young kids and Dad was away on tour half of the year; I'm not judging! And Jules and I loved it, the crispy, fragrant topping, the delicate flesh underneath. I had a sudden craving for it, leftover Entre-Deux-Mers and fresh fish fillets, thus I recreated the memory! Mum said my Poisson à la Brodelaise was very good, and I'm happy! Have a good Sunday!

Ingredients (serves 3):

2 tablespoons olive oil

4 small shallots

1/3 cup dry white Bordeaux wine, like Entre-Deux-Mers

1/2 lemon

a small bunch (4-5 sprigs) Garden Parsley

1/2 cup Breadcrumbs

a pinch of fleur de sel or sea salt flakes and freshly cracked black pepper

1/2 teaspoon fleur de sel or sea salt flakes

1/2 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper

2 small red Bell Peppers, rinsed

olive oil, for drizzling

3 beautiful pollock (or other white fish) fillets

Cherry Tomatoes, to serve (optional)

Preheat oven to 180°C/355°F.

Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.

Peel and finely chop shallots, and add them to the skillet. Cook, a couple of minutes until softened.

Stir in Entre-Deux-Mers, and thoroughly squeeze in the juice of the lemon halve. Bring to a slow boil.

Finely chop Parsley, and stir into the Breadcrumbs in a bowl, mixing well.

Stir Breadcrumb mixture into the skillet, until it absorbs the wine and lemon juice, and the mixture is not too wet. Season with fleur de sel and black pepper. Remove from the heat; set aside.

Halve and seed red Bell Peppers, and slice them into strips. Arrange Bell Pepper strips into a layer at the bottom of a large roasting tin. Drizzle generously with olive oil.

Season pollock fillets with fleur de sel and black pepper, and gently lay them onto the Bell Peppers.

Top each pollock fillet generously with Wine and Breadcrumb mixture, so it coats it nicely. Drizzle with a little more olive oil.

Place roasting tin in the middle of the warm oven, and bake, at 180°C/355°F, 25 minutes, until the fish is cooked and the topping is golden brown and crispy.

Serve Poisson à la Bordelaise hot, topped with Cherry Tomatoes, if desired, fluffy white rice, and chilled Entre-Deux-Mers.

Went to Isla Bonita last night for dinner. I ordered their fajita quesadilla without onions, sour cream, or guacamole. I didn’t know that it came with rice and beans. At first it came out with refried beans and Mexican rice. I can’t have them because they might use pig lard. (I don’t eat pig products.) So, I told them to make the rancho beans (they’re listed as vegetarian) and white rice (theirs has garlic mixed in). It took a little while for them to make it again. They really listened to me when I said no onions. They even picked them out of the pico da gallo. That’s above and beyond. It was really good. I had 2 pieces of the quesadilla and half of the rice and beans. Took the rest home and made a nice lunch today. Shared some churros for dessert. They were good, but not completely cooked in the inside. So there was a gooey center that stuck to my teeth and roof of my mouth. A little weird. Overall, it was great, though.
