My idea of an emergency back-up dinner is not normal

Problem: fish still frozen after being in the fridge for 20 hours.

Solution: tapas!

-mesclun greens with truffle vinaigrette
-goat cheese mixed with the extra vinaigrette
-marinated portabella mushrooms with garlic and goat cheese
-anchovies, roasted garlic and olives in olive oil

...and a shallot-lemon compote that didn't work at all on bread rounds, but will go very nicely with our next steak.

This is all from things I had lying around the house, although that's the last of the truffle oil until the next time my parents decide to be generous.

S says it's okay that I'm weird.

I am so sad that I can afford to use that much truffle oil about once a year.

(I should actually put the ratios here so I don't forget it until next time: 1 part truffle oil to 2 parts olive oil, juice of 1 lemon, 1 garlic clove, pinch of salt.)
