It's from the Guardian today.....

Curried fish finger sandwich
The Bombay mix brings an unexpected spicy crunch that takes this sandwich to the next level.

Cook the fish fingers according to the packet instructions. Mix the yoghurt, lime juice, curry powder and season with salt.

Sounds absolutely rancid if you ask me!

Was that inspired by that fish finger slop of Nigella's? I was so bored that I actually made it!

It's from a chef. There's also a chicken and frazzles sandwich.

I think I might give it a go. How was NIgella's??

Just no.....

Shudders at the thought......

Gliblet · 08/02/2021 17:01

That sounds to me like a 4pm on deadline day, 'I'll pay you a few hundred ££ for a few hundred words to avoid empty space' bollock-concoction. Or one of those Mad Max, hellscape recipes you used to end up with on Ready Steady Cook Grin "Susan has brought in her left shoe, a cabbage, and a tin of stewing steak"

MsRinky · 08/02/2021 17:16

Not sure about the apple, but the rest sounds great.

AtleastitsnotMonday · 08/02/2021 17:17

I think it was ok up to the Bombay mix.

CookEatRepeat · 08/02/2021 17:19

I think it all sounds ok apart from the Bombay Mix. I'd have a bowl on the side though and maybe out a sprinkle on one mouthful. Grin

SDTGisAnEvilWolefGenius · 08/02/2021 17:25

I’d give it a go!

AllTheWayFromLondonDAMN · 08/02/2021 17:28

Aside from the Bombay Mix, I’d eat that. I like a FF sarnie though and my McDonalds order is always the Filet-o-Fish.

BeautifulStar · 08/02/2021 17:28

I’m not sure, however DH came randomly came home with a bag of Bombay mix the other week (he works next to a shop selling lots of Asian food) and I was [puzzled] however - I haven’t been able to stop eating it! It’s the best! (I think it was the mental throwback to grubby dishes of the stuff left on the counter in restaurants/bars in the 80’s/90’s - and the thought of god knows who sticking their grubby mitts in it).
I’d try the curry fishfinger sandwich yes!

BeautifulStar · 08/02/2021 17:29

The [puzzled] was supposed to be Confused ha!

Georgyporky · 08/02/2021 17:30

Uncooked curry powder?
The whole concoction (can't call it a recipe) sound vile.

KevinSausage · 08/02/2021 17:32

No, I love a fish finger sandwich but that sounds absolutely vile

boredwiththeoldname · 08/02/2021 17:41

Vomitatious.

JaquelineBeanstalk · 08/02/2021 17:45

Ooooh, I have some Granny Smiths to use up, I’m tempted!

Gasp0deTheW0nderD0g · 08/02/2021 18:55

I like the sound of it. I've been eating a sandwich lately that has mayonnaise on one slice of bread and mango chutney on the other, filling is hard-boiled egg, with or without some lettuce. Delicious. If I had any Bombay mix in the house, I'd be tempted to put a bit in.

VettiyaIruken · 08/02/2021 18:56

That sounds utterly revolting.

MaryIsA · 08/02/2021 19:25

I really want someone to try it and report back.

HoldontoOneMoreDay · 08/02/2021 19:29

I can see where it's going.

I'd toast the bread, otherwise it will be really sloppy.
Skip the apple and the curry powder, put a squeeze of lime in the yogurt, sprinkle of chilli flakes. Overcook the fish fingers so they're crispy. And when it says sprinkle the Bombay mix do exactly that, don't pile it on.

Might need a jalapeño or two though.

MadameButterface · 08/02/2021 19:31

It sounds 80% amazing and 20% disgusting

lastqueenofscotland · 08/02/2021 20:31

That sounds absolutely lifting Envy

catinbootsx · 08/02/2021 20:32

No

inquietant · 08/02/2021 20:33

@MsRinky

Not sure about the apple, but the rest sounds great.
Exactly what I thought too!
MintyCedric · 08/02/2021 20:33

Nope...but I could totally get on board with chicken, blue cheese and frazzles
