Cheap Recipes For Fish And Seafood

I love fish and seafood and I would cheerfully eat it in lieu of meat any day.  However, fish in Australia is quite expensive.  Considering we live in Bunbury, which is a port city on the Indian Ocean side of Australia, one would think fish would be relatively cheap.  You couldn't be more wrong.  Most of the seafood we see in our supermarkets is imported, which is such a pity. 

Only this morning I saw crab patties at a local fish shop.  They were $2.95 each and boy were they small.  Jeremy and Ian would have eaten at least five each.  Next summer we'll have to go crabbing and then I shall invent a crab patties recipe of my own.

I try to cook fish twice a week so that we at least get the vital nutrients that fish supplies.  I choose from:

     Aboriginal Fish
     Exquisite tastes of lime juice
     and honey
 

     Creamed Corn and Salmon Bake
     Mix it all together in one bowl
     and bake for 45 minutes.
 

     Creamy Seafood and Rice
     This recipe actually uses a
     tin of cream of chicken soup
 

     Crumbed Fish
     With cornflake, sesame and
     herb coating
 

     Fish And Vegetable Pie
     With a decorative bread lattice
     on the top
 

     Fish and Corn Patties
     Fish patties with a distinctive
     Thai flavour

     Fish Cakes
     The  more potato you use the
     cheaper the recipe becomes
 

     Ginger Squid with Bok Choy
     If you don't have squid you
     could use chicken
 

     Seafood Pasta
     Very quick to make and
     you choose the seafood
     according to your budget
 

     Tuna And Sweet Corn Bake
     You can use tinned tuna
     salmon or mackerel
 

     Yellow Fish Soup
     Uses smoked cod, celery and red
     capsicum
