Verdict:
Keeper: Tartar Sauce
Toss: Tomato Tarts, Onions au Gratin
Saturday night calls for fun and sometimes complicated recipes to try out. Tonight was a mishmash.
From the Ottawa Citizen (date unknown, as I cut the top off, but a it was a few weeks back): Tomato, Pesto and Goat Cheese Tarts. I don't have a recipe link for this one, and I'm tossing the recipe, so won't type it out.
From Holiday 2009's LCBO Food & Drink magazine: Onion Gratin with Fresh Thyme (though I didn't have fresh thyme). This was good, but not fantastic, and requires long cooking time. Tossed the recipe.
To accompany the above-tested recipes, I steamed beet greens (delish) and pan-fried haddock, which I battered lightly: flour, egg, panko crumbs. To go with the fish, I made my favourite, already a keeper, Light Tartar Sauce, from November 2004's Chatelaine. I make it without capers, and if only a certain man in the house would stop eating all the pickles, maybe someday I could actually include a pickle in the dip, but alas, it is often pickle-less, and was so on Saturday.
