FRIDAY 14th/ APRIL 2017 “ GOOD FRIDAY “
We managed a little lie in this morning
before the church bells started, calling the faithful to prayers. No company in
‘ Doggy World Heaven ‘ this weekend, no doubt ‘ Chipsa ‘ will call in later to
see us, after our regular breakfast of toast & tea I got ready this
evenings supper ‘ Fish Pie ‘ – my version of the old classic! ( No Cheese and no Boiled Egg!!)
I first sweat-off a ‘Mirepoix’ of finally diced Onions, Carrots, Leeks, Celery
& Mushrooms, in butter, before adding a good slug of White Wine and then a
strong Fish Stock, I lightly poach the Cod, Hake & Salmon Fillets and then
use the fish stock to make the ‘Bechamel’ Fish Sauce, I then add the diced Cod,
Hake, Salmon, Prawns, Gambas, Prawns & Mussels, adjust the seasoning & consistency,
then some Garden Peas & chopped Parsley and leave to cook-off, the ‘
Vegetable Chef’ will top-off the pie dish with her famous ‘Mashed’ Potato,
ready to go in the oven later this evening. The aromas are wafting though the
house and up the street!

We are taking things easy, at the moment,
this evening we will go out to watch the main procession along Calle Mar of the
‘Santo Entierro’ and ‘ Ntra Sra de los Dolores’ as the whole village parades in
its finest, all the pictures will appear, above, later, at Midnight there is a small
procession of the ‘ De La Soledad’ which is undertaken in strict silence! Then
on Easter Sunday it’s the time for the final two processions ‘ Santisimo Cristo
Resucitado’ and ‘ Santisima Virgen del Rosario A.M.D.G’ Watch this space.
