Cook safely

Keep children and pets away from the hob and the oven, and keep oven gloves and a lid within reach.

  • Boiling water and steam. Turn pan handles inward, away from the edge of the hob. Lift lids away from you, and pour hot water away from your body: steam burns too.
  • Sharp knives. Cut on a board that doesn't slip (a damp cloth under it helps), and curl the fingers of the hand that holds the food.

Method

  1. Cut uncooked fish in long thin strips, roll them around the finger and fasten each roll or crimp with a wooden toothpick.
  2. Soak half an hour in strong salted water, then put into boiling salted water, enough to cover, with two tablespoons vinegar and boil about fifteen minutes.
  3. Drain, arrange on a platter, removing skin and bones, and serve hot with oyster or lobster sauce poured into cavities made by the finger.
