Quest Baits, SCR Products, Rigmarole Consultant & Master Chef of Great Britain, Scott Antony Ratcliffe, says - "How many of us take tins and rehydrated food out with us while fishing, even if it’s a short session or a week’s session? Here I’m going to show how easy it is to cook fresh on the bank while you’re waiting for that special take."

A nice looking recipe and easy to do on a single burner on the bank. I'll be giving that a try on the next overnight session. The only criticism is that there is no Creme Fraiche needed, as we all know how much Wol loves it . . . . . . . .

but on the plus side, you've got some olives to flick at people when you've finished.

I do like these bankside recipes though, and it probably gives the "Pot Noodle" brigade a few things to think about - how can anyone eat that stuff?

Scott wil be very please with your comments chaps. I was thinking, the fillet of beef might be a wee bit expensive for may people, but a nice ribeye or sirloin even might cook just as well for about a third of the price.

Come on lads, if i've told you once I've told you a million times,don't exagerate! Anyway who said anything about boiling? Not the chef. I like raw carrots, I like al dente carrots, I don't like half cooked carrots. As for Jason, well that's another matter:D

the fillet of beef might be a wee bit expensive for may people, but a nice ribeye . . . . . Jeff, I just checked out the price of Ribeye Steak in my local Waitrose - £32.95 per kilo. My daughter loves Ribeye steak so I'll probably be out in the garden (under the umbrella) this evening trying to keep the B-B-Q going in the rain. Regarding the recipe though, it would be a good help to give indicative cooking times for the various stages.

Is that the burnt stuff behind?QUOTE] Fortunately Fred you can park right behind your swim at Todber Manor, but if I cannot do that then its just the little double burner stove for a weekend. The portable B-B-Q does come in handy though when cooking for a 'herd' As to the background, Cakey told me to set-up there as its where Wol cooked last . . . . . .
