Might be a good variation. I like the classic version with capers and
bay leaves and without cinammon and cloves. I don't know why they
accompany it with canned new potatoes -- is that an Orange County
thing? -aem

Absolutely yes, I've had fruit salsas on fish and it was delicious.
One of my favorites is a blackened salmon with mango salsa, yummie.

That was what they put in the newspaper. I never, in my whole life,
used a canned potato. I make teeny red potatoes with the skin on them
then put butter, salt, pepper and fresh parsley on them.

Good site, thanks! I passed it along to my daughter, who wants to put
more fish on the table.

Glad that she can afford it......sea bass was 18.99 a pound today. It
has become so expensive over the past five years, fish or any seafood
has become reserved for special occasions.

She eats very little red meat, so she can afford the fish. I doubt
she goes for the expensive stuff anyway, unless it's a special
occasion. In fact, I don't think I've ever eaten sea bass and only
had halibut once or twice in a restaurant. I prefer shellfish over
fish.

Sea bass is called that because "Patagonian toothfish" wouldn't sell.

The mother of a former boyfriend used to like canned potatoes because
they were "so convenient". They're really nothing to write home about,
and I much prefer fresh spuds.

It's hard to imagine what could be more convenient than small potatoes,
fingerlings perhaps, rinsed and nuked for a few minutes.

I recently heard they have improved over the years. I used them a
bit when I was very young and first out of the house, and they
were so nasty that I've shied away from them ever since.
