Episode notes
Blender Mishap Cost Brian The Kitchen
- Brian once injured his finger by sticking it in a blender during a very drunk Christmas dinner, which required an ER visit.
- That incident led Nicole to stop letting him cook large family meals due to the mess and risk.
Quick Marinated Roast Trout
- Marinate small trout fillets briefly in soy, orange zest, chilli, garlic and ginger before roasting for bright flavour.
- Bake small fillets only 3–4 minutes to keep them tender and avoid overcooking.
Use Coriander Stalks For Depth
- Use coriander stalks in the marinade for a deeper herb flavour rather than only the leaves.
- Pair the trout with a crisp salad dressed in an Asian-style dressing for contrast.
