Here are some hints that you might find useful. • Do not discard over-ripe bananas. Slice and sprinkle it with lemon juice. Freeze it to use later for milk shakes, puddings or banana bread. It will blacken if you refrigerate it. • Fresh ginger will stay fresh for months in a freezer if you wrap it tightly in foil. • To separate the leaves of a round lettuce, hit the core end sharply against the kitchen counter top. The core can be pulled out and the leaves will separate without tearing into strips. Here is a tasty fish recipe which you can try: 4 cod fillets, skinned Salt and pepper to taste 150ml dry white wine ½ lemon, sliced 6 tablespoons mayonnaise 4 tablespoons lemon juice 50g capers, chopped Place the fish in a frying pan and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Add the wine and lemon slices, cover and simmer for 20 minutes. Remove the fish from the pan, reserving 2 tablespoons of the cooking liquor, and leave to cool. Mix together the mayonnaise, lemon juice and reserved liquor. Stir in the capers. Place the fish in a serving dish and top with the caper sauce. Serve cold. Serves 4
