They both look delicious and so palatable!

Anything with melted cheese on top looks great. Just ask ‘Tasty’

I don't think so but yours is.

but I 'cheated' and used shop bought puff pastry.

I doubt anyone would call that cheating. Even TV chefs recommend it. I like making puff pastry from scratch sometimes.

Savoy cabbage cream made with soft cream cheese and anchovies

That sounds most interesting. How did you make the cabbage cream?

Said quickly, I blanched the savoy cabbage in boiling water for a few minutes, then pan-fried it with few anchovy fillets. Then put all in the blender together with the spreadable cheese.

Thanks - yes, I was wondering how you got it to look so smooth. Savoy is quite a fibrous leaf especially if only cooked for a few minutes.

I would have liked to add few chilli flakes too, but I thought of this once I was already eating it..next time!

Prawn cutlets -- another new term to me. The cutlet part.

They look a little freezer burned. Try to buy them with the shells on. It's more work, but the shells protect the meat from freezer burn.

I like the shells to keep for making stock, too. I do think that shell-on seem to taste better. I also never understood people who buy shrimp and prawns already pre-cooked. Flavorless rubber.
